Design and performance evaluation of lead-free inorganic perovskite solar cells for addressing Nigeria’s energy crisis. (2025)
Thesis
LAWAL, S.M. 2025. Design and performance evaluation of lead-free inorganic perovskite solar cells for addressing Nigeria’s energy crisis. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2989000

Nigeria, the most populous nation in Sub-Saharan Africa with over 200 million people, faces a critical energy deficit, with approximately 45% of its population lacking access to electricity. To achieve energy sustainability, the country requires 160... Read More about Design and performance evaluation of lead-free inorganic perovskite solar cells for addressing Nigeria’s energy crisis..

Building integrated photovoltaics in Ghana: aesthetics and policy. (2024)
Thesis
AWUKU, S.A. 2024. Building integrated photovoltaics in Ghana: aesthetics and policy. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2795478

Buildings are known to account for over 40% of CO2 emissions globally, a number which is likely to increase if no feasible interventions are adopted. One sure way is the adoption of advanced solar applications such as building integrated photovoltaic... Read More about Building integrated photovoltaics in Ghana: aesthetics and policy..
