| dc.description.abstract | There has been a growing demand recently for better sources of energy for grain milling machines. Most technologies are being driven by sustainable development goals which one of them is affordable power for every house hold. Grain milling dates back, the cost of operation for this mill operations eventually impacts the final consumer of the products from this machines.
the project was aimed at designing and constructing a sustainable alternative power system for the grain milling machines. the power system designed here doesn't involve use of fossil fuel, solar, or hydro electricity as a source of its power supply.
power generated here is self sustaining and is obtained from use of dynamos, motors and batteries as major components. | en_US |
