Estimation and analysis of rooftop solar PV power system in Bangladesh

Abstract

The increasing demand of electric power and shortage of present energy resources lead today engineers and scientists to think about the alternative sources of energy, the sunlight is a potential sources for generating electric power. In recent years, it is increasingly used to generated power .The use of solar energy is attractive for rooftop solar system application also. Rooftop Solar systems are quite needing no fuel and require very little maintenance. Another advantage of PV system is: free energy, reliable power, flexibility and quick installation. The aim of this thesis is to Estimate and analysis of Rooftop Solar PV System in Bangladesh and to be a participant to make Bangladesh the first Solar Nation. Here discussed about solar photovoltaic system in Bangladesh both solar home system and rooftop solar power system. Broadly discussed about Rooftop solar power pv system. It’s connection, it’s metering arrangements etc. The important part of the thesis is to estimate the total installed capacity in rooftop pv system in Bangladesh without considering limitations and with considering limitations. At last to give some idea to calculate the installed capacity properly like site assessment, shading analysis, Financing Options, Legal and Regulatory Frameworks etc.
