Smart Power Grid: Prospects and Challenges in Bangladesh

#Prospects #and #Challenges

On 23^rd January, 2021,  IEEE BUBT Student Branch had arranged a seminar on Smart Power Grid: Prospects and Challenges in Bangladesh. The main purpose of the seminar was to learn about smart power grid’s challenges and prospects for Bangladesh. In the seminar, our mentor was Dr. MD. Abdur Razzak. He nicely presented the topic. 

He talked about the outline and outcome of this Smart Power grid. Generally smart grid is a modern technology of power system which can convert the whole power system in to digital format. In brief, a smart grid is the use of sensors, communications, computational ability and control in some form to enhance the overall functionality of the electric power delivery system. A system becomes smart by sensing, communicating, applying intelligence, exercising control and through feedback. For an ideal power system, this permits several functions which can optimize in the combination of the use of bulk generation and storage, transmission, distribution, and consumers. It can fulfill the goal which can ensure reliability and optimization of the use of Energy. It will also keep the environment free from pollution, save the assets, minimize the cost, easy operation against all hazards, maximum possibility to keep out from danger, provides power quality for 21st century needs. 

After discussion for about 15 to 20 min, the seminar was over. E-certificate was given to the all-active participants.
