“…The Nonrenewable source diesel generator which operates at a low load is inefficient and fuel cost low, diesel generator consumes 30% of full-load fuel consumption (Shaahid & Elhadidy, 2005). The autonomous diesel generator has high operation cost, constant maintenance, and the transportation of fuel to remote locations is difficult and costly, mainly in the rainy season in Bangladesh (Zubair et al, 2012). Diesel generator uses to help fulfil the target demand.…”

A quickly growing nation like Bangladesh is experiencing scarcity of efficient electricity production system. Upgrade of the electricity production system is required to keep the progress of the nation uninterrupted. Keeping this motto into consideration, in this research, a grid-connected hybrid system model has been identified to overcome the shortage of electricity in Bangladesh with the combination of photovoltaic, wind turbines, diesel generator for remote and upgrade areas. Photovoltaic and wind turbines are used as a main primary source and the diesel generator is kept as a standby source to fulfil our target. The proposed system is mainly the renewable energy-based plant because it is environmentally friendly with less emission carbon as well as other greenhouse gases, as well as the system is controlled by the programmable logic controller for supplying constant electricity. For design, optimization and grid connection, Patenga beach, Chittagong, Bangladesh has selected where resources are generally usable. Finally, it has been found that the cost of electricity scheme becomes as low as $0.12/kWh compared to the quick rental plant (around $0.33/kWh) in Bangladesh.

In this work, we present a technical and economic study of the solar powered street lighting system of a municipality in the south of Morocco. The state of the conventional street lighting system is first analyzed in a substation of street lighting. Then a sizing method is applied to the photovoltaic installation in the testing area. A financial study, by comparison between conventional and PV-based lighting, is carried out showing the feasibility of the PV street lighting.).

“…The capital cost consists of costs of the turbine with tower and controller, battery bank, inverter, and costs of installation and civil works. The capital costs of the system components were amortized with an interest rate of 10% (Zubair, Tanvir, & Hasan, 2012) over the useful life of each component. The project lifetime was assumed 20 years (Ajayi, Ohijeagbon, Aasa, & Omotosho, 2014;Dursun, Gokcol, Umut, Ucar, & Kocabey, 2013;Fleck & Huot, 2009).…”

Global GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions are increasing substantially and electricity sector is one of the key contributors to the world’s total GHG emissions. GHG emissions cause ozone layer depletion and global warming. Different policy regulation agencies are adopting regulations to reduce GHG emissions in various sectors. People already have started power generation from cleaner sources. Renewable energy sources can provide cleaner electricity. Bangladesh is a densely populated country and most of the country’s electricity is produced from natural gas and coal. The Bangladesh government has set a goal to utilize renewable energy for the production of 10% of its electricity by the year 2020. Bangladesh has a lot of isolated coastal areas which are not connected to the national grid which can be electrified by using abundant wind energy. In this study a techno-economic analysis has been conducted for an off-grid island of Bangladesh. The analysis was conducted by developing a data intensive model that calculates the generation cost of electricity from wind energy. The model also estimates the capital cost of the system. The model shows that electricity can be produced from wind energy at a cost of $0.57/kWh. The system’s capital cost was calculated to be $63,550.16.Article History: Received October 15th 2016; Received in revised form January 26th 2017; Accepted February 4th 2017; Available onlineHow to Cite This Article: Rahman, M.M., Baky, M.A.H, and Islam, A.K.M.S.
