UK: Affordable ReNewable Energy Anywhere (ARENA): A mobile hybrid renewable energy generator (175)

 Application deadline
  • 16th July 2012
Affordable renewable energy anywhere: A mobile hybrid renewable energy generator With a rapidly increasing demand for energy, developing countries face an urgent need to concentrate on developing renewable energy. However, most distributed renewable energy generators require high capital investment and are not suitable for emergency situations. In this project, a rapidly deployable, highly efficient and light weight mobile power generation unit will be designed to deliver uninterrupted power to several rural villages together. However, technical challenges in the power electronics system design and configuration optimisation need to be addressed first. Applicants should have an excellent first degree in engineering, ideally with specialisms in mechatronic, electronic, electrical and or control systems engineering.
