Abstract:
Bangladesh is a developing country and the country's economy is dependent on agricultural work
and industrial factories, it is constantly struggling to meet this growing energy demand. Most of
Bangladesh's energy consumption comes from fossil fuels. And to meet this energy demand we
have to rely mainly on natural gas and coal-based power plants. As a result, the pressure on fossil
fuels is increasing and its amount is decreasing day by day which is not pleasant for us at all.
In order to solve this problem, we have tried to highlight in this study the use of solar power and
the pioneering role it can play in meeting the national electricity demand. In our proposed
system, we have compared the difference between solar panel-based power and the power
generated from the national grid. From which it is found that the cost of solar panel-based
electricity is less than the electricity generated from the national grid. Although its initial cost for
solar panel-based power generation is a little higher, but after a certain period of time these costs
can be recovered. Also, solar panel based solar power plants are environmentally friendly,
meaning that it does no harm to the environment, as fossil fuel-based power plants do by
producing carbon-dioxide. In this proposal we have used Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Energy
Renewables (HOMER) software for cost analysis, energy analysis etc. and the results obtained
from it have also been analyzed
