Solar Assisted Heat Pump Dryer with a Multifunctional Thermal Collector
This research investigates the drying of chilli using a solar assisted heat pump system with a multifunctional thermal collector, focusing on moisture reduction, drying efficiency, and the effect of temperature and airflow on drying performance.


Hybrid Solar Drying System for Salted Silver Jewfish
This research examines the drying of salted silver jewfish using a hybrid solar drying system compared with open sun drying. It focuses on drying efficiency, moisture reduction, and energy performance, supported by experimental analysis and mathematical modelling to improve drying processes.


Estimating the Cost of CO₂ Mitigation through Feed in Tariff Policy in the Philippines
This research evaluates how Feed in Tariff policy can support renewable energy development and reduce carbon emissions in the Philippines. It finds that while the policy is effective in encouraging investment and lowering emissions, the cost of carbon reduction remains relatively high, highlighting the need for more efficient and balanced policy approaches.


Limitations of Value Chain Upgrading Strategies in Malaysia’s Solar Industry
This study challenges the assumption that moving up the solar industry value chain automatically leads to higher economic returns in Malaysia. It demonstrates that such strategies, when implemented without considering risk, market dynamics, and structural dependencies, may increase vulnerability rather than strengthen the industry. The findings emphasise the need for a balanced and context sensitive approach to industrial development.
