  Design and Estimation of Biogas Plant For Canteen Waste: A Case Study of RD’s Rajgad Technical Campus, Dhangwadi, Bhor, Pune

  By N. J. Sathe, K. V. Shingate, Y. V. Bachhav

  Abstract: Today's economy and society rely on energy. In the end, conventional fossil fuels like oil will run out, and an alternate primary energy source will be required to close the widening gap between rising demand and declining supply. Biogas is a great energy source in light of rising petroleum prices, declining foreign exchange reserves, and the rupee-dollar exchange rate. Organic matter breaks down to produce biogas, a fuel. The primary …

  Multi-Criteria Assessment of Renewable Energy Technologies for Solar Buildings Using Waspas Method

  By Shilpa Kathad, Kishan Bhayani

  Abstract: This research comprehensively evaluates renewable energy alternatives for solar buildings using the WASPAS multi-criteria decision-making framework. The analysis covers six distinct energy technologies: geothermal heat pumps, wind turbines, biomass heating systems, micro-hydro installations, fuel cells and building-integrated energy efficiency systems. These options are assessed against four key criteria: energy efficiency, economic viability, environmental sustainability and technical feasibility. The WASPAS methodology combines both summative and multiplicative techniques to produce reliable rankings. …

  Lightweight Models for Per-PC Energy Consumption Forecasting: Comparative Study with ML and DL Approaches

  By Akanksha Patel, Banafsha Patel, Shweta Waghmare

  Abstract: We have collected primary data from automated logging of parameters like CPU utilization, estimated power, active or idle state, user logging activity, and the type of day. Additionally, survey data showed user awareness, energy-saving behaviour, and PC usage patterns. The data is pre-processed and merged by applying processes such as data cleaning, normalization, and feature extraction, i.e., determining the peak active timings and downtime. Developed lightweight prediction models based on …
