Abstract
Ensuring a sustainable future necessitates the development of environmentally favorable projects. A safe environment not only supports various energy sources but also lays the groundwork for sustainable plans for future generations. This paper explores the feasibility of utilizing renewable energy sources (RES) within educational institutions, specifically Community High School Akwaeze, to generate electricity. Solar energy, harnessed through photovoltaic (PV) modules installed on the rooftops of 2-storey and 1-storey school buildings, has the potential to generate 27KW and 9KW of electricity, respectively. Biomass derived from human waste in the school hostels can be utilized for biogas production, capable of generating 234KWh of electricity. By leveraging these two energy resources, the school can meet its daily electricity demand of 10.21KW and even produce excess power for sale to nearby businesses, offices, and homes, thereby establishing a sustainability fund. However, the installation of such energy systems requires significant capital investment, potentially necessitating support from government entities, as well as alumni associations, for projects realization.
