1.1 PREAMBLE

 

The thermal power stations are causing extreme pollution to  our mankind and nature. Lot of diseases and handicapped  affect are the fruit of these power stations(Osama,2007). Also natural resources like coal, oil, radio active materials etc will come to  shortage stage or an end in near future. The other power generating systems like HydroElectricity power generating   plant cannot afford much power, although it causes less  pollution. Therefore, it needs urgent invention to go for non Energy is playing an important role inhuman and economic development. On of the driving forces for social and economic development and a basic demand of nation isenergy. Most of the energy production methods are one-way, which requires change of form for the energy. In parallel to developing technology, demand for more energy makesus seek newenergy sources. In parallel to developing technology, demand for moreenergy makes us seek new energy sources. Researches for renewable energies have beeninitiated first for wind power and then for solar power. Efficiency of solar power conversion systems is ca. 18%, whilst that of wind power is ca. 55%.

 

The more noticeable benefits of usable electric power include: improved health care, improved education, better transportation systems, improved communication systems, a higher standard of living, and economic stability. Unfortunately, almost 33% of the world’s populations live without usable electrical power (Osama & Egon, 2007). Most of the non-electrified regions are found in developing countries (Phuangpornpitak & Kumar, 2007). Nigeria is one of the developing countries that most of its population lives without usable electricity. Many of the rural areas of Nigeria have not benefited from these uses of electricity in the same proportion as the more populated urban areas of the country (Akinboro, et al 2012). These rural areas can be electrified either by extending the grids of the existing power systems or by constructing isolated new power systems, which are alternative energy sources. Electrifying these remote areas by extending grid system is difficult and costly. Some of the rural areas that were electrified Like Mubi, Adamawa State, experience unreliable power supply characterized by low voltage and incessant power cuts often without warning or even apologies to consumers (Medugu & Markus, 2011). The fluctuating power supply causes problem to electronics appliances used at homes.
