Abstract: Background: Over the past few years, there has been a noticeable increase in demand for high-performance power converters that include fault correction as well as precise tracking. Purpose: The goal of this study is to look at the impact of a modular multilayer converter (MMC) on fault correction utilizing data from an arm current sensor as a source of information. The Multi-Material Converter (MMC) provides its customers with a number of benefits, such as the ability to handle high voltage or power, enhanced management, and decreased harmonic distortion. The purpose of this research is to get a better knowledge of the function that MMCs play in improving the accuracy of arm current sensor readings by performing an inquiry into the practicability of employing MMCs for fault compensation while giving data on the influence that these components have. Methodology: The research has mainly driven its data from secondary sources with practical experiments for its validation. Conclusion: The testing results show that the MMC is successful in reducing the number of mistakes and enhancing the overall performance of power converters.

Abstract: Efficient energy supply is critical for Kenya's socioeconomic development as it strives to meet national and global development targets. Despite its vast energy resources potential, Kenya faces challenges in providing access to modern energy sources. Achieving sufficient energy for socio-economic development requires transition in energy systems. Using multi-level perspective (MLP) approach, this study explored Kenya's energy transition by analyzing its techno-economic, socio-technical and political dimensions of the transition to understand its energy development trajectory and the potential for economic growth, energy security, and sustainable development. The findings revealed how energy governance and policy structures shape Kenya's transition, with both local and international actors influencing development plans and renewable energy investments. It further showed that Kenya’s national energy transition is driven by the abundance of renewable energy sources, leading to a consistent growth in the electricity sector, facilitated by market-based policy instruments such as feed-in tariffs that attracted private sector investment in renewable energy technologies. This study provides valuable insights into Kenya's energy transition by emphasizing the importance of sustainable development and universal energy access. It underscores the significance of aligning technology, societal acceptance, and institutional support and calls for a balanced approach that incorporates local interests in the energy transition.
