Purpose: This paper aims to investigate the profile of the wind speed of a Cameroonian city for the very first time, as there is a growing trend for new wind energy installations in the West region of Cameroon. Two well-known artificial neural networks, namely, multi-layer perceptron (MLP) and...

The current electricity challenges in Africa have spurred the interest of governments in incorporating renewable energy sources into the energy mix. The use of hybrid solar energy systems has become a practical choice for electrification. The novelty of the paper is threefold: (i) The Grid/Fuel...

The present paper performs a techno-economic and an environmental analysis of an islanded energy system based on Geothermal/Biogas/Wind/PV hybrid energy system using two battery technologies for electricity generation in the city of Woulde in Cameroon. The innovation of the present paper is...

The electricity deficit in Cameroon is estimated today at 50 GWh. This deficit characterized by frequent and sometimes prolonged load shedding, disrupts economic and social life. To overcome this electricity deficit, Cameroon took the decision to produce 3000 MW of electrical energy from its...
