    An Innovative Energy Neutral Home System for Rural Areas of Bangladesh
    (Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology, 20-Dec-2012) Das, C. K.; Alam, M. J.
    Nowadays, Power crisis is one of the greatest problems of Bangladesh. Most of the electricity produced in Bangladesh is based on non-renewable energy resources. The reserve of Natural resources or non-renewable energy sources such as: fossil fuels, oil, natural gas etc. are limited. So this is the time to search such a system where the residential areas of Bangladesh become Energy Neutral. This paper demonstrates such a system in which an Energy Neutral Home (ENH) is designed and implemented for rural areas of Bangladesh. The designed system is able to meet the energy requirement with renewable energy resources without taking any electricity from grid. In this research, biogas is used as primary renewable energy source for the generation of electricity.

    Virtual Power Plant As A Remedy To The Power Crisis Of Bangladesh: A Case Study-Cuet
    (R&D Wing, MIST, 2011-02) Das, C. K.; Das, N. K.; Islam, M. M.; Sazzad Hossain, S.M.
    A virtual power plant is a cluster of distributed generation installations (such as microchip, wind-turbines, small hydro, back-up genets etc.) which are collectively run by a central control entity. The concerted operational mode shall result in an extra benefit as to deliver peak load electricity or load following power at short notice. Bangladesh is facing acute power crisis like other developing countries. As we have limited resources we have to think economically.VPP is playing good role in European & American market. So we have taken VPP as a solution for power crisis. In this thesis, we have taken CUET as a reference model. To solve the power crisis in CUET & to supply power to the main grid a small virtual power plant is designed .Whole CUET is divided into three regions for designing purpose. By using MATLAB simulink environment machine characteristic curves are derived & cost is calculated.
