Abstract:
Bangladesh is one of the most populous developing countries in South Asia. Although
dependent on agriculture, many industries have sprung up since this country's independence.
To keep pace with the pace of development of any country, it is necessary to increase the power
generation of that country. Bangladesh is still dependent on fossil fuels for power generation.
But this fossil fuel is declining day by day. Gas is most commonly used in power generation.
There is a gas crisis in cooking in the capital of Bangladesh. Bangladesh has recently started
importing liquefied LP gas. In this case, we need to focus on renewable energy. From 2009 to
2020, the Government of Bangladesh planned to meet 10% of electricity demand from this
renewable energy. These millions have now increased. The government's target is to get 55%
of its electricity from renewable energy by 2041. And the most promising of these renewable
fuels is power generation from sunlight.
This thesis focuses on the on-grid solar system design. How an on-grid customer can benefit
from being connected to the Grid with a net meter is discussed.
We know that no electricity is available when the on-grid PV system is not connected to the
Grid. For this reason, it has been found that the number of off-grid PV systems installed in
homes or commercial buildings is much higher than that of on-grid. Off-grid DC devices are
commonly used. On the other hand, the extra electricity generated on-grid is being wasted. A
nice solution to use this extra electricity is the net meter. With this net meter, the customer will
be able to supply the surplus electricity to the Grid, resulting in a much lower electricity bill.
Here is how the net meter works.
