Grid-interactive micro-hydrokinetic with pumped-hydro storage: The case study of three South African demand sectors

Koko, S.P.; Kusakana, K.; Vermaak, H.J. (IEEE: International Conference on the Domestic Use of Energy (DUE), 2017)

This paper investigates the operation of different demand sector such as residential, commercial and industrial load profiles when supplied with a grid tied micro-hydrokinetic pumped-hydro storage (MHK-PHS) hybrid system. ...
Hydro aeropower, an option for electricity cost reduction in farming applications

Kusakana, K. (IEEE: International Conference on the Industrial and Commercial Use of Energy (ICUE), 2017)

This paper develops a model which can be used to minimize the electricity cost of South African farms through the usage of a wind pump with pico hydro generator and a borehole in pumped hydro storage configuration ...
Optimized scheduling of diesel - renewable systems with pumped hydro storage

Bokabo, B.; Kusakana, K. (IEEE Xplore: Industrial and Commercial Use of Energy (ICUE), 2016 International Conference, )

The present paper develops a model to optimize the daily operation of a hybrid energy system consisting of a photovoltaic unit, a wind unit, a pumped hydro storage system and a diesel generator. The main purpose of the ...
