Cryogenic storage behavior and characteristics of cascaded packed beds were obtained. •. The highest energy and exergy efficiencies of the packed beds reach 93.13 % and 85.62 %, respectively. •. Gravitational energy plays important role in pressure loss in cryogenic packed bed.
Electrical energy storage systems include supercapacitor energy storage systems (SES), superconducting magnetic energy storage systems (SMES), and thermal energy storage systems []. Energy storage, on the other hand, can assist in managing peak demand by storing extra energy during off-peak hours and releasing it during periods of high demand …
Although there is a dearth of information on the wind energy characteristics of Botswana, it seems that wind speeds are generally low. Preliminary results from a study [5] suggest that low speed aerogenerators can be operated for various domestic applications such as milling of grains, pumping water and even for lighting …

1. Introduction The relationship between energy and economic development has been the centre of debate over the past 30 years with many researchers arguing that there are conflicting views as to the exact relationship between the two (e.g., Ang, 2008, Apergis and Payne, 2009, Kraft and Kraft, 1978, Yu and Choi, 1985).).
Botswana''s energy problems present three broad challenges to energy planning: the first is sustaining an ongoing transition from the country''s almost complete …
