Supply of energy is able to meet the increasing demand of today’s people, which is major causes faced by world. The shortage of power can be reduced by using renewable energy resources. There are many renewable energy resources like wind, tidal and biomass energy, solar energy. The mostsignificant form of renewable source is solar energy. It has undergone a research and development in the recent years and still it is developing. Solar photovoltaic cell is device used in solar energy conversion. It converts forthrightly electrical energy from the sunlight. The efficiency of PV cell is disturbed when rise in working temperature. Temperature on the panel is inversely proportional to the power generation. The main problem met by solar cell is temperature rise. Due to this temperature the energy conversion is low. By decreasing the temperature on the surface of PV panel to enhance the electric efficiency. So, in present-day different cooling methods have been projected and verified experimentally. Several techniques have been tried, mostly based on active water and air cooling, as these are simple techniques. The main objective of this system is to increase the solar panel efficiency using water cooling method of the panel gets cooled by exchange temperature.

The foremost issues of the twenty-first century are the ever-increasing challenging demand of electrical energy and controlling the emission of greenhouse gases (GHG). Along with these issues and with limited energy resources, it is imperative to look for non-conventional methods of power generation like from renewable energy resources. Microgrid has emerged as a new field that can meet the energy demand with a special emphasis on good power quality, reliability, and security. A major concern with the use of renewable energy resources is their intermittent nature which makes their integration and operation a challengeable task. Energy storage devices like batteries can be used to overcome the problem of intermittent nature of renewable energy resources. This chapter focusses on different aspects of renewable energy resources in detail. It analyzes the effectiveness of the proposed topology of the microgrid for health clinic load profile with the help of PVSYST software.

Due to rapid urbanization and industrialization there is fast depletion of fossil fuels. Renewable energy resources contribute a considerable part in the Grid these days yet there is a mismatch between generation and consumption. The consumption of electrical energy is more than the electrical energy generated. It has become mandatory for us to conserve electrical energy in order to save the fuel reserves for our future generation. In this paper it is explained how an energy efficient institution can be made with the help of periodic Energy Audit  


Despite of being one of the richest countries in energy resources Pakistan is facing a huge short fall of electrical energy as energy demand is increasing rapidly but increase in generation capability is much slow. Currently Pakistan is using a huge amount of non-renewable energy resources to produce electricity which is not only expensive but also affecting the environment due to by-products of this process. This is a common trend throughout the world to use renewable resources of energy as it is economical and nature friendly. This paper gives an overview of currently used methods for power generation in Pakistan and a gives a brief detail on how and in which areas of the country power generation can be done using renewable resources of energy. Cost of installing the system is also one of the most important factors but will not be discussed here because purpose of this paper is only to help the reader to know about different renewable resources of energy. Numerous types of wind turbines i.e. Bonus 300/33.4, NEG/Micon 1000/60, Vestas 600/42 and Whisper 0.9/2.13 have been statistically analyzed, for the energy they could ideally produce, under the same atmospheric conditions. The coasts of Karachi are proposed to be among the ideal, most suitable sites, for the erection of wind farms, in Pakistan. Wind-Data for the year 2003 (previously acquired through anemometers) is processed in “MATLAB” to implement the “Curve Fitting techniques” adjusting the “k” and “c”, the shape and scale parameters, respectively, of the “Weibull Distribution” so that the refined Wind-Data curves resemble the ones made by the Raw-Data, minus the anomalies. Furthermore, the refined data is then extracted to be populated in the spreadsheets for mathematical/statistical calculations

Electrical energy becomes necessary for human being. Generation of electrical energy mostly depends on fossils fuel, they are limited in nature and also responsible for environmental pollution. Renewable energy resources provides a better alternative for future. In comparison to conventional energy resources economical aspect is a major issue of renewable energy sources with the feasibility and efficiency. This paper investigates the performance analysis and control of Photovoltaic (PV)-wind hybrid system connected to electrical grid and feeds large plant with critical variable loads. The technique of extracting maximum power point is applied for the hybrid power system to capture maximum power under varying climatic conditions. Moreover, Control strategy for power flow is proposed to supply critical load demand of plant. The Dynamic performance of the proposed hybrid system is analyzed under different environmental conditions. The simulation results have proven the effectiveness of the proposed maximum power point tracking (MPPT) strategies in response to rapid variations of weather conditions during the day.

Reliable and affordable energy is the key for the socio-economic development in rural and desert communities worldwide. While energy can be used for consumption purposes such as Lighting, Access to Information, Comfort and Entertainment, productive use of renewable energy is the key enabler for SMEs and Economy to grow. The paper examines the complex interactions among Energy, Materials, Water, Food, Building, Employment and Environment. It also discusses the implementation of renewable energy technologies to overcome some of barriers faced by rural villages and desert communities. It shows some of the special applications and approaches used over the past few decades in energy conversion, consumption and conservation to achieve poverty reduction, social justice and sustainable development. Field experiences in Basaisa projects, Egypt showed that open free dialogues with all stakeholders, site-specific education and training, appropriate local financing systems and access to knowledge are key-elements and essential factors for achieving green economy and sustainable community development. The coming decade will see a continued expansion of knowledge about renewable energy resources and its useful applications as systems friendly to the environment and as tools for economic activities, sustainable living and growth in rural and desert communities.
