and only 32% of total population is
connected to grid electricity. The country's
electricity distribution board is not capable
to cope with the exponential growth in
demand for power in the capital and all over
the country. To meet the existing energy
demand, there is no alternative to renewable
energies such as solar, wind, biomass etc.
The possibilities of using solar power are
already being tested and
increase. Using solar energy, simply, is a
process which can provide energy from the
sun. Photovoltaic panel (PV panels made of
silicon) is the tool to harness solar energy. A
solar panel is mainly
semiconductor materials such as silicon,
gallium, arsenide etc. Though the initial
price of installment is higher, it is expected
that the price will go down within next 5
years. Considering the cost and inherent
advantage of non-requirement of fuel, solar
PV applications have great potential for both
on grid and off grid
particularly the off grid rural areas. If we
consider riverine territory of Bangladesh,
there are vast 'Char' and delta areas where
establishment of long transmission and
distribution lines are not economically
viable. So, what we see today as a
moderately expensive energy solution is
going to become a very attractive economic
solution very soon. In
Bangladesh has adopted a renewable energy
policy to generate 10% of its energy from
renewable sources by 2020. This is no doubt
a very ambitious target, attaining even 50%
of the set target can be considered an
applauding achievement and can make a
very big difference so far the rural economy
and quality of living standard of the country
is concerned.
