Algorithm for Efficient Battery Management in a System Powered by Renewable Energy.

Abstract

We all know that Bangladesh is a country which has substantial shortage of electricity. It is generally stated that at the end of 2009, the demand for electricity is around 5000MW whereas the generation capacity is around only 3000MW, thereby measuring a shortfall of 2000MW,which is increasing day by day. One of the most important factors for a country for development is its power generation capacity. If we want to improve the general condition of our country, then we must find ways to meet our demand for electricity. So in this situation what can us in Bangladesh do? If we want to meet the shortage, then we have to build big power plants. But unfortunately it is not possible due to of lack of financial resources. A good substitute could be renewable energy, like solar panel or wind turbine. Every individual house with solar panel could be an individual power plant. This would reduce dependency on carbon based power plant demand. These renewable projects are somewhat costly. Therefore, it is important for us to efficiently design such system and use the generated energy properly. In our work we have proposed a battery management circuit which will intelligence take necessary steps to use the generated renewable power properly.
