Abstract
Life in the rural coastal communities in the Philippines depicts poverty. This poverty is due to the lack of direct energy access and frequent destruction of livelihood lead by severe weather such as storms and typhoons. To help these communities to become sustainable the researchers provided a solution to enable alternative energy access to these communities as well as severe weather early warning. This research implements a hybrid alternative energy harvesting system using an attachable solar and wind energy apparatus for community use;; farther--time early warning for severe weather through weather APIs with a real--time atmospheric analysis and prediction for a short--time early warning;; and a handheld lantern for fishermen that allows them to receive farther and short--time alerts. The system is integrated into The Things Network through LoraWAN™ which allows administrators to monitor the energy stored and weather conditions as well as communicating with the lanterns at a longer and more reliable network.
