The world is having an
enormous outgrowth in lifestyle and economy based on the huge amount of
electricity generation. Bangladesh is also in this race. But the
generation of electricity is under pressure here because of limited
fossil fuel sources. At this point, renewable energy gives an exemption
and, among all the renewable energy resources, solar energy plays a
vital role as it is eco-friendly and imperishable. But a limitation of
land and its cost becomes a major problem for the installation of
land-based large scale solar power plants in Bangladesh. A floating
solar photovoltaic system brings a solution to it with a lot more
advantages in a riverine country like Bangladesh. This paper will
present the prospect of floating solar photovoltaic systems in the
catchment area of Kaptai Dam, Bangladesh and reveal the possible
analysis regarding co-location, efficiency, costing of FSPV and research
possibilities. RET-screen energy management software is to validate the
feasibility analysis based on financial details.
