Experience from First Solar Mini Grid Service in Bangladesh

Presenter: Hasna. J. Khan, (Prokaushali Sangsad Limited, Bangladesh)


Overview

A 100 kW solar minigrid service in the remote off-grid rural market of Sandwip island of Bangladesh has shown technical and commercial viability for the service provider. Financial planning of solar minigrid requires an optimum blend of consumer categories to ensure maximum socio-economic return on investment. Demand and supply side energy management is an important component of stable power supply from the solar minigrid. Policy-wise, subsidized financing with attractive incentives for the private service providers is essential at this early stage of solar minigrid deployment[1].
