Sample Projects

• 

  Energy Skills Assessment and Strategy Development

  Rwanda is implementing several power plant projects that include Photovoltaic (PV), hydropower, peat, geothermal and methane. As part of its effort to prepare its national energy workforce, Epsilon is undertaking energy skills assessment, strategic skills development, and energy skills qualification and profiling study.

• 

  Low Carbon Development Study

  This low-carbon development study has two components: the power sector and the oil & gas sector. Epsilon's researcher is a lead author for the low carbon development study of the power sector that included national renewable energy potential assessment for Photovoltaic (PV), Concentrated Solar Power (CSP), wind, waste-to-energy, biomass, and small-hydro power; energy modeling using the Energy Forecasting Framework and Emissions Consensus Tool (EFFECT) model, energy demand and supply analysis, and off-grid economic analysis.

• 

  Mesoscale Wind Resources Assessment

  Epsilon researchers have conducted a mesoscale modeling (high resolution wind modeling) and mapping to identify optimal wind potential with the highest capacity factor useful for the generation of utility scale wind energy project in Kosovo.

• 

  Renewable Energy Powered SWRO System Design

  Epsilon researchers have designed and implemented the first of its kind renewable energy powered desalination system in the Caribbean. We have also conducted wind and solar energy potential assessment and wind energy seasonal variability assessment study, which is critical in desalination system design.
