    Bangladesh has always trouble producing enough electricity to meet the demand which is a major hindrance to the development process. The whole world is facing the crisis of fossil fuels as well as Bangladesh. To reduce the dependency on these fossil fuels, we proposed a hybrid renewable energy system for the coastal areas of Bangladesh, specially Kuakata. We determined the most optimized solution among the multiple designs which is solar-wind hybrid system using HOMER software. Then we build a prototype of the solar wind hybrid system using Arduino microcontroller. The wind turbine is modelled using induction motor to generate AC electricity. The two batteries are used to store the electricity and supply to the small loads. The renewable hybrid system reduces dependency to the grid electricity and it also reduces the environment pollution.
