Abstract

This study was carried to improve the energy saving by investigating the influence factors that contribute to high energy consumption in a building particularly related to the building in Technology Campus, UTeM. Correlation analysis was performed to measure the strength of relationship between the influence factors whereby all the factors proven to have a strong linear correlation with the energy consumption. The Stepwise Selection of Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) were used to determine and modelling the most influence factors that affects the energy consumption. The final linear regression models was developed based on the amount of lighting in a building and surrounding temperature in the building which is considered as major influence factors that affect the energy consumption. Comparing the actual and predicted energy consumption in Technology Campus, UTeM showed that the MLR model obtained can be used to predict energy consumption and accounted for around 81% of the variance.

Abstract

In this paper, a proposal was made to recreate an energy harvesting technique using biomass energy such as twigs, leaves, wood, paper, and charcoal emitted by burning the said materials and harvest the energy from the released heat. The harvested energy is then converted into a voltage that can be used to charge devices such as mobile phones or even turn on emergency lights. In terms of its application, the system can be used to provide backup power during disaster especially during a flood or other causes of power outages. The system can also be used to charge electronic devices during outdoor activities in remote areas where electricity is inaccessible such as camping or other outdoor activities. This system can produce free electric power that can also be extremely beneficial in third world countries. The cost of the module used is also much cheaper than other existing harvesting methods such as solar panels or water turbines. Based on test data collected using IoT platform, charcoal was determined as the best material in terms of output power generated.
