Solar Home System (SHS) impact in Bangladesh
Abstract
Access to electricity is one of the major factors that impinge on
socio-economic maturity of a country. At present Bangladesh is
distressing from an acute electricity problem. Around 65% of people
having lack access of electricity and majority of them are living in
village. The generated power was incapable to assemble the
demand, leading to a load shedding up to maximum 1500MW. In
this situation SHS technology can be a smart effort to solve this
problem by harnessing energy the country’s free-flowing renewable
such as sun shine. In the last 15 years SHS installation is
increased tremendously. So it is the high time to measure what are
the impacts of SHS in our country. This result will lead us to solve
our energy problem more effectively.
