VRT- High capacity power Transformers & Power Sub Stations

A substation is a part of an electrical generation, transmission, and distribution system. Substations transform voltage from high to low, or the reverse, or perform any of several other important functions. The purpose of a substation is to ‘step down’ high voltage electricity from the transmission system to lower voltage electricity so it can be easily supplied to homes and businesses through our distribution lines.

Bakone Power Systems (BPS) has partnered with a global OEM company VRT in manufacturing of Low voltage to High voltage transformers.  Bakone-VRT power transformers are built according to the highest quality and industry standards using advanced technologies for greater reliability and durability. Bakone-VRT power transformers and mobile substations not only have value-added features that ensure conformance to specifications; they are reliable, quiet, and efficient and have a long service life.

Bakone-VRT mobile substations are turnkey solutions for flexibility in power distribution and emergency power restoration. Once mainly used for fast power restoration in emergencies, mobile substations have found new applications among power generation and transmission companies. Mobile substations provide versatile alternatives when planning new stations by adding power distribution flexibility and by providing an interim power supply during maintenance operations.

Hydrogen Fuel

Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant element in the universe and is considered the most environmentally friendly fuel. Nearly 65 million metric tons of hydrogen are produced every year worldwide using a variety of methods, including steam reformation of natural gas, the fermentation of biogas and electrolysis using solar power.

Hydrogen is most commonly supplied in cylinders, although it can be stored and extracted from a variety of substances. These include a variety of chemical compounds or metal hydrides. In addition, hydrogen can be reformed from carbon-based fuels such as natural gas (CH4), ammonia (NH3), gasoline and diesel.

Today, hydrogen is commonly referred to as “the fuel of the future”, especially for private and public transportation, which are significant sources of pollution. Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz and General Motors and others are all focusing their efforts on the development and sale of hydrogen fuel cell cars as the supporting infrastructure is being deployed.

Additionally, many backup power systems have incorporated hydrogen fuel cells due to their advantages such as consistent power, limitless runtime, higher reliability, and zero emissions.

Autonomous mining – IAI

In regards to the mining industry, autonomous equipment can either be classified as semi-autonomous or fully autonomous. While semi-autonomous mining equipment is typically operated by a human, who performs certain tasks, it has the capabilities to self-operate for all other tasks. Whereas fully autonomous mining equipment does not require a human operator in a control room to ensure their tasks are completed. Fully autonomous mining trucks complete a set of tasks without any operator intervention and are instead monitored in a remote-control room by miners to ensure that the trucks are running efficiently throughout the mine.

The most important aspect of any given mining project is centred on the location of the ore; therefore, autonomous mining vehicles must be equipped with the information on how to adequately access this location for the efficient extraction and transportation of mined materials. To navigate around the mine, autonomous mining vehicles are equipped with a high precision global positioning system (GPS). The precise placement of numerous satellites surrounding the ore of the mine is imperative in ensuring the accuracy of the autonomous vehicles to function correctly. Other technologies such as lasers and radar can also support autonomous mining vehicles as they perform close proximity tasks, such as the shovelling and hauling of materials

Bakone Social Intervention

Bakone Social Intervention is a labour of love by social entrepreneurs who are committed to making a change in the world. Given that there are a lot of social ills tearing communities in Africa apart, as a company we focused on the issue we felt was closest to our hearts, lack of access to good quality drinking water. There are many communities in Africa where mostly women and young girls walk miles and miles to fetch water that they use to drink and cook with. Not only is it no longer safe to walk those distances but also the quality of the water from those rivers is sub-standard and extremely dangerous if not treated correctly before use. We know that the statistics are scary with most of the fatalities affecting children under the age of 5. One billion people around the world don’t have access to safe drinking water. 4100 children, under the age of 5, die every day due to a water related illness. This is really bad and totally unnecessary. Bakone Social Intervention has found a solution to help curb this problem.

The Solution: Bakone Social Intervention Watergen systems. At AHIMSA Fund meeting in France in October, Watergen was presented by Bakone Social Intervention, and came out top 3 in the companies being considered for funding. This was a great achievement because there were over 37 nationalities and over 20 projects presented for potential funding from all around the world and what Bakone Social Intervention presented was extremely well liked and accepted. Just to briefly recap what this innovative technology can do.

Bakone Social Intervention Watergen systems is a revolutionary innovation that extracts water from the ambient air around us and turns it into good quality drinking water. It works very similar to an air conditioner, instead of turning the humid air to cold air, it makes the humid air more humid, condenses it, takes it through a filtration system, adds back the minerals that were removed and turns it into water. There are minimal to no infrastructure costs and completely mobile, you could place it here today and move it there tomorrow, taking it to where people need it the most as long as you have a power source and even if you don’t, the solar will work just as well.

Let me give you the numbers REAL quick: One big Bakone Social Intervention Watergen systems unit, produces 5000 litters of water per day. Assuming that a person needs 3 litters of water per day, that means 1667 people will have access to a fresh glass of drinking water. Immediately. A complete sustainable Bakone Social Intervention Watergen systems for a village/rural area includes: all needed infrastructure for 4 machines (civils and others), security fence and other needed security parameters, 4 water machines, solar solution needed to supply power for the system, transport, installation, training, commissioning, operation, all peripherals and filters, service and maintenance all in order to supply of 20,000 litters of pure drinking water per day all at site.

Bakone Cyber Taylor Made and Special Solutions

Cybersecurity analysts help prevent attacks through their expertise and knowledge of databases, networks, hardware, firewalls and encryption. They keep computer systems running smoothly, prevent the theft of financial and personal information, and block intruders from accessing and divulging proprietary data. Cyber security consists of technologies, processes and measures that are designed to reduce the risk of a cyber-attack (which is conducted through the deliberate exploitation of systems, networks and technologies.

Effective and robust cyber security requires measures based around three pillars:

People, Processes and Technology.

This three-pronged approach helps organisations defend themselves from both highly organised attacks and common internal threats, such as accidental breaches and human error.

People – Every employee needs to be aware of their role in preventing and reducing cyber threats, and specialised technical cyber security staff need to stay fully up to date with the latest skills and qualifications to mitigate and respond to cyber-attacks.

Processes – Processes are crucial in defining how the organisation’s activities, roles and documentation are used to mitigate the risks to the organisation’s information. Cyber threats change quickly, so processes need to be continually reviewed to be able to adapt with them.

Technology – By identifying the cyber risks that your organisation faces you can then start to look at what controls to put in place, and what technologies you’ll need to do this. Technology can be deployed to prevent or reduce the impact of cyber risks, depending on your risk assessment and what you deem an acceptable level of risk.

Why is cyber security important?

A strong cyber security stance is a key defence against cyber-related failures and errors, and malicious cyber-attacks. Most cyber-attacks are automated and indiscriminate, exploiting known vulnerabilities rather than targeting specific organisations, so it’s vital to have the right cyber security measures in place to protect your organisation.

What are the consequences of a cyber-attack?

Cyber-attacks can disrupt and cause considerable financial and reputational damage to even the most resilient organisation. If you suffer a cyber-attack, you stand to lose assets, reputation and business, and potentially face regulatory fines and litigation – as well as the costs of remediation.

Bakone AI and Big Data Mining Solutions

Data mining is a process used by companies to turn raw data into useful information. By using software to look for patterns in large batches of data, businesses can learn more about their customers to develop more effective marketing strategies, increase sales and decrease costs. Most data storage solutions are built for large enterprises—feature-heavy, but expensive and not really solving the needs of small to mid-size organizations. However, affordable unified storage solutions are emerging to allow businesses to consolidate onto a single, efficient and powerful platform.

The 7 Most Important Data Mining Techniques
….

1. Tracking patterns. One of the most basic techniques in data mining is learning to recognize patterns in your data sets. This is usually a recognition of some aberration in your data happening at regular intervals, or an ebb and flow of a certain variable over time.
   …..
2. Classification. Classification is a more complex data mining technique that forces you to collect various attributes together into discernable categories, which you can then use to draw further conclusions, or serve some function. For example, if you’re evaluating data on individual customers’ financial backgrounds and purchase histories, you might be able to classify them as “low,” “medium,” or “high” credit risks. You could then use these classifications to learn even more about those customers.
   ….
3. Association. Association is related to tracking patterns, but is more specific to dependently linked variables. In this case, you’ll look for specific events or attributes that are highly correlated with another event or attribute; for example, you might notice that when your customers buy a specific item, they also often buy a second, related item.
   ….
4. Outlier detection. In many cases, simply recognizing the overarching pattern can’t give you a clear understanding of your data set. You also need to be able to identify anomalies, or outliers in your data. For example, if your purchasers are almost exclusively male, but during one strange week in July, there’s a huge spike in female purchasers, you’ll want to investigate the spike and see what drove it, so you can either replicate it or better understand your audience in the process.
   …..
5. Clustering. Clustering is very similar to classification, but involves grouping chunks of data together based on their similarities. For example, you might choose to cluster different demographics of your audience into different packets based on how much disposable income they have, or how often they tend to shop at your store.
   ….
6. Regression. Regression, used primarily as a form of planning and modeling, is used to identify the likelihood of a certain variable, given the presence of other variables. For example, you could use it to project a certain price, based on other factors like availability, consumer demand, and competition.
   …..
7. Prediction. Prediction is one of the most valuable data mining techniques, since it’s used to project the types of data you’ll see in the future. In many cases, just recognizing and understanding historical trends is enough to chart a somewhat accurate prediction of what will happen in the future.

Bakone Maritime intelligence platform

THE NATIONAL CHALLENGE – Lacking Control of Territorial Waters

As the international rules of maritime transportation is far from being respected, it turns almost impossible for sea bordered countries to enforce their national maritime related policies. Specifically, we witness three major concerns along the Mozambique coast line:

1. Security – trouble with El-Shabaab infiltrators threatening the Gas facilities.
2. Smuggling – Of drugs and weapons through Mozambique ports to and from Africa.
3. Illegal fishing – Spain, Portugal and China are the main concern when it comes to exceeding their annual fishing quotas, sometimes a hundred-fold.
