Feasibility study on solar power strength and distribution in Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Pulau Pinang / Siti Salwa Zulkifli

Malaysia is a country that has the advantages of strength in harvesting solar power energy due to its location in the equatorial zone. The electricity demand in UiTM Pulau Pinang is about 1.5 million kWh monthly. Due to the high amount of electrical consumption, the dependency on non-renewable energ...
