Rethinking the off-grid city

Super-Resolution Off the Grid

Super-resolution is the problem of recovering a superposition of point sources using bandlimited measurements, which may be corrupted with noise. This signal processing problem arises in numerous imaging problems, ranging from astronomy to biology to spectroscopy, where it is common to take (coarse) Fourier measurements of an object. Of particular interest is in obtaining estimation procedures ...

Off-grid power solutions

Despite widespread privatization and liberalization of the electricity sector in the 1980s and 1990s, rural electrification has been largely neglected. This is attributed to the fact that rural electrification provides little by way of market incentives for profit-seeking private companies. Besides, it is also characterized by geographical remoteness, dispersed consumers, higher costs of supply...

Off-grid Energy System Design for Residential Units

For decreasing the amount of air pollution and green gas emission and saving fossil fuels resource, one of the ways is extending renewable energy utilization. Hence, this yields to growth and development of Photovoltaic systems. Nowadays due to increasing electrical energy requirements and ability to privately providing required energy, the use of solar energy and its electrical power creativit...

Evaluation of Off-grid Hybrid Renewable Systems in the Four Climate Regions of Iran

Renewable systems influence the process of supplying domestic electricity demands. It will be useful to replace the conventional energy generation system by renewable energy sources since the uncontrolled use of fossil fuels is accompanied by global warming and environmental hazards, in addition to the danger of their depletion, and because most of the energy derived from these fuels are used i...
