Electronic Load Controllers For Micro Hydroelectric plants in the Philippines

The Electronic Load Controller (ELC) for Micro Hydroelectric Plants

Welcome!

Welcome to our 2nd year project web page!

We are students from Imperial College London studying Electrical and Electronic Engineering and throughout the year we have chosen to work with the Engineering Without Borders group on a particular task as part of our 2nd year group project. Our task is to design (and prototype) an Electronic Load Controller (ELC) for micro hydroelectric plants specifically for villages in the Apayao Province in the Philippines. The purpose of which is to regulate the frequency of electricity generation within these plants so that the villages within this province receive steady electricity of the correct frequency and voltage.

We have also published a report which details our research, analysis and conclusions. Click below to view this report. Alternatively you can download it by right clicking and "Saving Target/Link As"

Learn why this project is important to the team! Explore why the Electronic Load Controller will be extremely beneficial and see how it can be used to help residents of the village!

Delve into our designs and see how the ELC functions. Also look deeper into the circuit to see how individual parts contribute to the overall product.

Come meet the team behind this project and learn more about our contributions and roles!
