As part of the externally funded research project titled “The Role of Smart Streetscape Design on Reducing the Roads Carbon Emission in Egyptian Neighborhoods,” a team led by Dr. Rania Rushdy from the Faculty of Engineering has developed a photovoltaic solar station for charging electric cars that has been successfully installed on campus. Installed on the roof of Building B, the photovoltaic solar station will support campus electric vehicles by securing a clean energy supply source independent of the electricity provided by the Grid that relies on fossil fuel, using green solar energy instead. The station consists of 14 solar panels, an inverter and four batteries, and has the ability to charge a 12-battery electric vehicle in three hours during the summer season. The station will be monitored and maintained by the Centre for Renewable Energy (CRE), and to date one of the University’s golf cars has been successfully charged. The cost of the station was fully funded by the Science, Technology and Innovation Funding Authority (STDF). The team members at the British University in Egypt include Prof. Iman El Mahallawi, Director of the Centre for Renewable Energy, Dr. Amr Abdelkader, Director of the Centre for Predictive Maintenance, and Centre Research Assistants Eng. Mahmoud Elthakaby, Eng. Seif Tarek and Eng. Engy Samy.
