The paper discusses the design of hybrid diesel-solar photovoltaic systems with energy storage with a sample involving five islands in Maldives. The study has shown that implementation of diesel-solar PV hybrid power generation systems with storage in small island countries increase energy security and they are economically and environmentally attractive ArticleItem Drowning in rising seas : navigating multiple knowledge systems and responding to climate change in the Maldives(Pitzer College, 2017-04) Spiegel, Rachel H.; ރޭޗަލް އެޗް. ސްޕީގެލްThe threat of global climate change increasingly influences the actions of human society. As world leaders have negotiated adaptation strategies over the past couple of decades, a certain discourse has emerged that privileges Western conceptions of environmental degradation. I argue that this framing of climate change inhibits the successful implementation of adaptation strategies. This thesis focuses on a case study of the Maldives, an island nation deemed one of the most vulnerable locations to the impacts of rising sea levels. I apply a postcolonial theoretical framework to examine how differing knowledge systems can both complement and contradict one another. By analyzing government-enforced relocation policies in the Maldives, I find that points of contradiction between Western and indigenous environmental epistemologies can create opportunities to bridge the gap between isolated viewpoints and serve as moments to resist the dominant climate change discourse.
