Environmental Physics Study of Natural Renewable Energy Resources in Socotra, Yemen

Abstract

The best sources for energy production are renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, tidal energy, and other energy sources, which ensure the sustainability of power generation for life and even avoid the problems producing from fossil fuels combustion, which leads to air pollution, climate change, and many problems, but the main problem that facing Especially in developing countries, such as Yemen is the lack of a database and sufficient information to know the available capabilities for electricity production by natural resources that region possesses, especially the remote islands from the main power plant, which are powered by diesel and gas generators. In this paper, we will provide and list all-natural resources that possessed Socotra island, and its analysis to provide a clear vision that enables exploitation of these resources in the future on a clear scientific basis, as the study shows that mean wind speed is approximately 9.8 m/s, solar radiation reaches 180 kWh/m2, all these values ​​confirm island has the total ability to generate electricity from these sources with high efficiency.

Evaluation of Nigeria’s Energy Policy on Biomass Utilization

“…Its significance is highlighted by the fact that merely 40 percent of Nigerians are linked to the power grid, facing power outages for an average of 10 to 12 hours daily (Yusuf et al, 2019). Biomass refers to any biological material obtained from plants and animals that is used to provide energy (Regmi et al, 2021;Sánchez et al, 2019;Serag & Adil, 2021). Biomass energy has two main advantages: it is readily available and it is safe to use without endangering the environment (Sokan-Adeaga & Ana, 2015).…”

Sustainability of Rural Road Development: A Case Study on Woro Village Kepohbaru District Bojonegoro Region

“…Numerous research projects have been carried out to bolster sustainable development as the cornerstone of eco-friendly laws and procedures. Among these are the instances in that women participate in decision-making (Wahyuni et al, 2023), safeguarding the environment with wastewater (Mukwarami & Poll, 2023), preventing urban collapse and enhancing it's quality (Moita et al, 2021) and undertaking actions like forest management to protect the environment (Gautam et al, 2021;Paudel & Paudel, 2021), establish a connection with sustainable development (Tuwu & Arsyad, 2021), farming (Paudel & Paudel, 2021;Rachmansyah et al, 2023) sustainability (Adeoye et al, 2021), infrastructure sustainability (Rachmansyah et al, 2019), replenishable energy (Serag & Adil, 2021) Research on the sustainability evaluation of rural road development is relatively new since it considers more than just one aspect of road construction, as was done in earlier environmental studies (Bella et al, 2019;Edward et al, 2019;Eremina, 2018;Giunta, 2023), Social factors include choices about education, gender roles, and young employment (Shimamura et al, 2023), road safety (Gaber et al, 2023) as well as local economy (Wan et al, 2022), accessibility (Nissanka & Gunasekara, 2023), economy of agriculture (Lu et al, 2023) industry or sector (Pillabhotla et al, 2023), commerce, travel, and logistics (Saidi et al, 2020). The five pillars of sustainable development namely environmental, social, economic, institutional management, and law enforcement are presented in this study as a more all-encompassing strategy.…”
