“…The existing literature lacks significant exploration of the nexus of gender and entrepreneurship, as well as the problems and opportunities that women entrepreneurs in Bangladesh encounter, despite its considerable significance (de Groot et al, 2017). The sociocultural environment of Bangladesh is characterized by a multifaceted composition of various cultures, religions, and economic disparities (Hasan et al, 2022). The nation in question is characterized by its own identity, which was established through the attainment of independence from Pakistan in 1971 following an extended conflict for liberation.…”

“…Furthermore, the nation is capable of building 30 GW of onshore and offshore wind energy. Additional RE sources exist in the nation; among them, biogas offers considerable promise and is mostly produced from municipal and animal waste as part of sustainable waste management [14]. Another very promising source is solar energy.…”

Hybrid renewable energy sources (HRES) are increasingly being utilized to meet global energy demands, particularly in rural areas that rely on diesel generators and are disconnected from the utility grid, due to their environmental and human health benefits. This study investigates the performance of an off-grid, hybrid PV/diesel generator/battery system for a decentralized power plant in Kuakata, Bangladesh, meeting a load demand of 3000 kWh/day with a 501.61 kW peak load demand. HOMER Pro (hybrid optimization model for electric renewable) software (version 3.11) was used to simulate and optimize system operations utilizing real-time solar radiation and load profile data from that location. This study also includes a sensitivity analysis of the off-grid HRES system under different electrical load demands, project longevity, and derating variables. The results reveal that CO2 emissions have potentially decreased by more than 30% and over 10 tons per year, respectively, when compared to traditional power plants. The optimized system’s net present cost (NPC) was determined to be around USD 5.19 million, with a cost of energy (COE) of USD 0.367 per kWh per unit with a 100% renewable component. Furthermore, the current study’s findings are compared to previous research that has resulted in an economical hybrid renewable energy system with an affordable COE. The hybrid energy system under consideration might also be applicable to other parts of the world with comparable climate conditions.
