Towards a workable renewable energy framework inSouth Africa by Jooste, D

“…However, issues on whichSouth Africa's legal framework is found to be wanting include: a lack ofbinding RE targets and full costing in the energy sector; the Government'sreluctance to enter public–private partnerships despite its current lack ofcapacity; and an almost unfettered executive discretion in terms of REdevelopment and deployment.This dissertation concludes that the Government has failed to take a longtermview of the energy sector, choosing, instead, to accomplish interimsocial upliftment through short-term utilization of coal power at the expenseof the environment and future generations. …”

Deep Reinforcement Learning-Based Approaches for the MPPT Control of Standalone Solar PV Systems by Nwachukwu, Sampson

“…In this study, a solar PV array's MPPT control problem under PSCs is investigated and addressed by applying three model-free and off-policy deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithms such as Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG), Soft Actor-Critic (SAC), and Deep Q-Network (DQN) algorithm. They are utilized mainly due to their robustness and ability to handle continuous state spaces, unlike the traditional RL method, which operates with discrete action and state domains. …”
