effects, prominent among which is the emission of CO2. Carbon dioxide significantly contributes to global warming and, consequently, causes climate change. This has called for international policies like the Kyoto protocol and Copenhagen summit that set limit on greenhouse gases (GHG) emission [1]. Renewable energy sources are carbon neutral and can present a favourable condition by reducing CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. Unfortunately, they are not yet in abundant supply to meet man’s demand.…
