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..

Gas diffusion transport characteristics and mathematical description of membrane systems with application for biogas upgrading. (2023)
