Water as a Possıble Energy Resource to the Shortages in Electrıcal Power Supply: The Gaza Strıp Case

Alaa MA Musalam

Abstract


Abstract: This study investigates how renewable energy resources may well remedy the problems that stem from the shortages in electricity power supply using the Gaza strip as a particular case study. The method adopted to address this question is experimental using the available laboratory at College of Science and Technology. A particular finding emerges in this study which suggests water energy being a critical resource because it may well substitute the shortages in energy power supply.
