“…A feasibility study in Chittagong, Bangladesh, claimed vast wind energy potential in Chittagong. For this study, the number of wind turbines required, and their maintenance and operational costs were also determined for their proposed sites [29,30]. Similar observations were also made for Bangladesh's coastal region, as presented in Figure 1.…”

Despite the vast potential of wind energy, it has yet to be implemented widely in Bangladesh. Several barriers play major roles in obstructing the wind energy sector’s development in Bangladesh. Hence, it is necessary to identify these barriers to progress this sector’s growth. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a multi-criteria decision-making method that can rank alternatives by considering multiple factors. It is a valuable tool for complex decision-making problems with multiple criteria, and their relationships must be clarified. So, in this analysis, AHP is used to rank the barriers related to wind energy development in Bangladesh. First, six main barriers and eighteen sub-barriers have been identified from a detailed and comprehensive literature review. The main barriers are categorized into technical, administrative, policy and political, economic, social, and geographic. After that, a questionnaire was sent to experts to obtain their opinions on these barriers. Based on the analysis, it was found that, with a weighted score of 0.46, technical barriers were the most significant ones. Administrative barriers ranked second with a weighted score of 0.21, and social barriers ranked last with a weighted score of 0.03. Among the sub-barriers, risks associated with technology were found to be the most significant, while land use conflict was found to be the least significant. Finally, several recommendations are provided to overcome the wind energy barriers in Bangladesh. The findings of this study can help policymakers and stakeholders develop strategies to overcome the barriers to wind energy development in Bangladesh.

“…He researched on this system for a tourist hotel which is located in coastal area of Queensland [4].According to a survey, there is an existing market size of 6 million households for Solar Home Systems (SHS) on a fee-for-service basis in the off-grid areas of Bangladesh [5].Muhuri Project which is situated in Feni has the potentiality of producing 100 MW from wind energy [6]. Different government and non government organizations (NGOs) such as Grameen Shakti,RSF,BRACetc are working to distribute the renewable energy technologies all over the country [7][8] …”

From the last few decades the world has become more anxious about severe climate change. So the interest on clean energy is increasing tremendously. In Bangladesh power crisis is a regular and acute problem. There are many isolated areas and islands where no electricity have been reached yet. To abate the severe energy problem wind and solar energy has good prospects. Bangladesh is situated between 20.30 and 26.38 degrees north latitude and 88.04 and 92.44 degrees east which is an ideal location for solar energy utilization and It's long costal line is suitable for wind energy as it is caused because of the bumpy heating of the atmosphere by the sun and revolving earth. In this paper, we have proposed a Hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) based on Wind turbine and PV module which is capable of meeting 50% of Sandwip's load. We checked the possibility of meeting this demand by simulating this system by creating a prototypical in HOMER simulation software.
