    Cambodian Energy


    Hello, I'm doing a project for University, and I’m looking for some help. The goal of my project is to design a product that can provide electricity for people in Cambodia that have unreliable electricity, or haven't been connected to the grid yet. I need to get input from people who may have some insight about the issue, so I went to this board for a new perspective. Obviously, this forum will be more likely to recommend solar panels, but it would help if I could get some verbal feedback. If you have any questions, I would love to clarify anything about the project, but it would be a great help if you could take the survey I have attached. It takes less than five minutes, and doesn't ask for any personal information.

    These are the ideas I've had so far: - A product that can store energy relatively cheaply in order to make existing power generation more consistent, like a battery, or pumped water storage. Can also be used in along with another product to store energy for one household. - Smaller scale water turbines built for personal power generation from smaller rivers. - Small scale solar panels for powering individual homes. - A product where a human can turn a wheel to generate electricity, like a hand crank or stationary bike. - a simple heat engine that can generate electricity from any heat source.

    You must define the loads before designing a system.
