The objective of this paper is to design and simulate for rural areas isolated from the electricity grid, a system based on solar energy for the optimal supply of green electricity and medical
The solar power solution is clean and renewable and reduces the overall cost of running PSA plants, whilst protecting children from air pollution and other potential environmental risks. This
A reduction in the frequency of O 2 delivery interruptions due to fuel shortages and multiple patients needing the concentrator at once was observed, explaining the mortality reduction. Interpretation
The aim of this project was to explore the possibilities of producing concentrated medical grade oxygen with direct solar power during daytime and store it as compressed gas for night-time
In addition, I used data collected in the Shamwana project, 2016, to evaluate current costs for oxygen provision. Market availability, and costs for oxygen storage solutions were determined by an
Background Pneumonia is a leading cause of childhood mortality globally. Children with severe pneumonia associated with hypoxaemia require oxygen (O 2) therapy, which is scarce across
Key Points Question Is solar-powered oxygen delivery (solar-powered O2) a cost-effective intervention for use in children younger than 5 years with hypoxemia in low-resource
This randomized clinical noninferiority trial compares solar-powered oxygen delivery vs standard oxygen delivery using compressed oxygen cylinders among children younger than 13 years with hypoxemic
Solar-powered O2 delivery can overcome gaps in O2 access, generating O2 independent of grid electricity. According to a recent study published in the Lancet, solar-powered
The aim of this project was to explore the possibilities of producing concentrated medical grade oxygen with direct solar power
