Abstract

Bangladesh is the eighth populous country in the world with the highest population density and a vast majority of its population, who are living in villages and small towns, are deprived of power. Recently some steps are being taken by the Government of Bangladesh (GoB) to bring those people under electrification who are in remote inaccessible un-electrified area where grid expansion is expensive and it is being done by encouraging them to use renewable energy such as: Solar photovoltaic, Solar thermal power, Wind power, Biogas, Mini-Hydro etc for electricity generation in stand-alone system. But the high installation and maintenance cost of these renewable energy based power generation in stand-alone system are becoming the main hindrances to the village people to afford it. Though some financial helps are provided from government and some NGOs, but those are not enough and only a few people get these privileges.
