Optimisation of a Renewable Energy System for Rural Electrification
Summary. This paper optimizes anaerobic digestion systems that convert cattle waste into biogas for rural electricity generation. Using Tabu Search optimization, the authors determine the ideal system size and operating method to maximize revenue for a given number of cattle. The findings show that properly sized waste-to-energy systems can effectively increase electricity access in rural Uganda.
