For combating with these challenges, an automatic irrigation system can be used. This is possible by using soil moisture sensors, Programmable Logic Controller, motor pumps and solenoid valves. Diesel pumping systems are mostly used in irrigation because most of the agriculture lands are located in areas where there is no electricity. In this paper the use of solar PV systems in agriculture irrigation as solution of reduction of carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) in Rwanda is presented. Simulation with Hybrid optimization Model for Electric Renewables tool (HOMER) at Kigina site, Rweru sector, in Bugesera district shows that the diesel water pumping system emit a big amount of gases as it is found that emission of gases is 231,119kg/year for carbon dioxide (CO2), 1,443kg/year for carbon monoxide (CO), 63.6kg/year for unburned hydrocarbons, 8.65kg/year for particular matter, 566kg/year sulfur dioxide (SO2) and 1,356kg/year nitrogen oxide ($mathrm{NO}_{mathrm{x}}$) but for the solar PV systems no emission of those gazes. The benefit of using solar powered irrigation system is also demonstrated in terms of cost in this paper.","PeriodicalId":371237,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122229306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, capacity uprate of lines differs in some fundamental ways from new additions, and has some advantages and disadvantages that the techno-economic approach may not be able to fully consider. Thus, the authors believe that a multi-criteria decision approach (MCDA) from the field of Operations Research (OR) could be useful in this scenario. To this end, the author has investigated other possible factors that could form criteria in a MCDA approach to assessing capacity uprate in relation to new lines. Several factors that could form criteria for evaluation were identified and are discussed in this paper. In addition to techno-economic aspects, these factors include financial position of company, effort in planning of lines, the duration of line project implementation, methods of construction and commissioning of projects, and environmental implications.","PeriodicalId":371237,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115894698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent evidence indicates that beyond achieving electricity access, the grid continues to expand and converges with minigrids. Such convergence is associated with policy, regulatory and technical challenges. One of the technical challenges is the lack of appropriate methods for optimally planning the grid integration of minigrids. Previous research demonstrates that identifying an optimal point of grid infeed into a minigrid improves the loss reduction of the integrated network. However, the method for identifying grid infeed points requires a rigorous power system analysis. This paper introduces a loading index that can operate as a ‘rule of thumb’ for pre-assessing the need for a detailed grid integration study when integrating minigrids. The presented index is demonstrated for two case studies, and its accuracy in different minigrid conditions is also discussed.","PeriodicalId":371237,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122295221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These load growth scenarios help decide how to reinforce current networks to sustain the growth in load demand. Modelling networks on load flow programs like DIgSILENT is relatively easy for simple networks but becomes time-consuming for complex, large, and real networks. This brings about limitations such as planning inadequacies; and results in longer Distributed Generation (DG) connection approval periods. In this paper, a 12-step method for determining distributed generation Medium Voltage opportunity Networks (MVONs) was developed using machine learning (Linear, logistic regression techniques and recommendation systems). When the technique was applied to four distribution networks, protection coordination reinforcements against loss of grading and desensitization were required for DG connections where the medium-voltage transformer circuit breaker TMS and network fault levels were within certain time and current thresholds respectively.","PeriodicalId":371237,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123742801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Until now, global EV deployment has greatly benefited from several regulatory and fiscal incentive measures, with most high-income countries already having the grid prerequisites for large market penetration of EVs. In this Viewpoint, we examine Dakar’s EV vision in contrast with global trends and make the case for more locally relevant and inclusive EV strategies for Sub Saharan African cities.

Moreover, a continuous monitoring guarantee a better power quality of power delivered as well as distribution system efficiency and reliability. This paper establishes an alternative methodology for Technical Losses (TL) and NonTechnical Losses (NTL) analysis per feeder. The monitoring process relies on Automated Control Chart with a statistical approach, which allows detecting any deviation in the energy consumption whenever the consumption data surpass admissible deviation limits set by control parameters.

In this regard, Fault Location, Isolation, and Service Restoration (FLISR) scheme is a prevalent smart grid functionality for enhancing the reliability performance of a distribution system. At the high level, FLISR facilitates faster sectionalization of a distribution feeder during a failure event and reliability improvement is achieved by limiting the exposure to or duration of outage experienced by customers connected to the feeder i.e., Self-Healing. This paper introduces a Heuristic Method suitable for FLISR scheme implementation: select manually operated medium voltage isolation switches are upgraded to automated and/or tele-controllable Ring Main Units (RMU). The method assigns a Reliability Value that can be readily calculated for any manual switches under consideration. A ranking system is then introduced to rank the manual switches where ones with the highest Reliability Values are prime candidates for automation. A case study will be presented based on an actual distribution network in a utility in North Africa, using a predictive reliability model developed in CYMDIST software to compute and compare the reliability performance (SAIDI) of selected feeders with RMUs. The result shows that the reliability performance with RMU is most sensitive to feeders with longest length attributes and least sensitive to the feeders with lowest capacity attributes in the network.","PeriodicalId":371237,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125885656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent years, the Ugandan government has paid special attention to hydropower generation because it is a renewable energy source. However, hydropower is one of the most vulnerable energy generation technologies to global and regional climate change. The purpose of this paper is to present an assessment of the effects of climate change on hydroelectric power production in Uganda's energy sector. The sensitivity of the risk associated with the annual energy production of large hydropower plants in Uganda has been evaluated using the extreme climate change (RCP8.5) scenario described in the Economic Assessment of the Impacts of Climate Change in Uganda of 2015. According to scenario analysis, the contribution of currently installed hydropower plants to the total electricity production would decrease from 80.7% in 2020 to 60.3% in 2050 as a result of a drop of 20% over Lake Victoria, and an assumption of surface temperature increases of $3^{circ}text{C}$ in 50. This study suggests considering storage capacity to deal with future climate variability and its effects on hydropower plants. Rebalancing the energy mix and reducing reliance on hydropower would also be recommended to ensure more diversified power production.","PeriodicalId":371237,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE PES/IAS PowerAfrica","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134581540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
