Abstract
Efficient energy generation and utilization of both energy resources and energy by the end user will play a significant role in the socio-economic development and generation of wealth in Zimbabwe. One of the most promising renewable energy source in the country is Solar Energy. In recent years, solar energy has received much attention as an easily utilizable energy source of electricity. If proper systems and technology are used, solar energy can provide an environmental friendly option and national energy security for a long-term sustainability of the Zimbabwean economy. This paper describes the potential of Advanced Solar Energy Generation by integrating Nano Carbon Electrical Energy Storage System to improve the energy sector in Zimbabwean perspective.
