A hybrid of 30 KW Solar PV and 30 KW Biomass System for rural electrification in Bangladesh

Abstract

This paper is mainly addressing the design and analysis of a hybrid Solar and Biomass System for rural electrification in a remote area in Bangladesh by Decentralized Distributed Generation & Rural Power Distribution Management. Energy is crucial input in the process of economic, social and industrial development. Energy plays a vital role in our daily life. But the conventional source of energy to produce electricity is decreasing day by day significantly. In this regards non-conventional or renewable energy resources such as bio-energy, Solar, Wind, Ocean and Geothermal are taking this challenge. A large proportion of the world's population lives in remote rural areas and far away from grid. The installation and distribution costs are considerably higher for remote areas. Moreover, there is greater transmission line losses and poor supply reliability. There is growing interest in harnessing renewable energy sources since they are available in abundance, pollution free and inexhaustible. Not only that, The combining of technologies means Hybrid technology provides interesting opportunities to overcome certain technical limitations and to mitigate fuel price increases, deliver operating cost reductions, and offer higher service quality than traditional single-source generation systems. A hybrid system is a dynamic system that exhibits both continuous and discrete dynamic behavior a system that can both flow and jump.
