Thus scheduling residential energy storage device is necessary to optimize technical and market integration of distributed energy resources (DERs), especially the ones based on renewable energy. The first step of electricity consumption forecasting at individual household level is used to achieve proper scheduling of the storage devices. Then an intelligent agent based controlling technique is proposed to make sure the financial benefits of end-user as a part of energy management system.

Here we have shown MJSC's are composed of 3 layers of material that have different bandgaps. The upper layer has the largest bandgap while the lower layer has the smallest bandgap. This model allows less energetic photons to pass through the upper layers and be absorbed by the lower layer, which increases the overall efficiency. One significant estimation is that generated photocurrent in each layer must be the same since the layers are in series. Besides, for most effective absorption from the spectrum of incident radiation, the bandgaps of each layer should differ by approximately equal energies. Due to the high cost, multi-junction solar cells are usually used in the SSPS system, in Microwave Power Beaming from space to ground based receiving station and as collector cells where a large amount of sunlight is reflected onto the cell.","PeriodicalId":404901,"journal":{"name":"2015 3rd International Conference on Green Energy and Technology (ICGET)","volume":"110 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128439845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the research, reduction of CdTe layer was done in the proposed cell and found that 1μm absorber layer is enough for acceptable range for cell conversion efficiency. The possibility of this ultra-thin CdTe absorber layer was examined, as one with 100 nm ZnTe back surface field (BSF) layer to minimize the recombination losses at the back contact and to reduce the barrier height in the valence band of the proposed cell. Higher conversion efficiency of 22.53% (Jsc = 24.28 mA/cm2, FF = 0.875, Voc = 1.06 V) has been achieved with only 0.8 μm of CdTe absorber layer along with 100 nm ZnTe BSF where as conversion efficiency is 18.68% (Jsc = 21.47 mA/cm2, FF = 0.85, Voc = 1.02 V) without BSF layer.

In this mechanism the pressure energy from the movement of human body is used to harvesting electricity using gymnasium bicycle. This paper also presents a field survey on the human and gymnasium at Chittagong city to find out the feasibility of this mechanism.

Tidal power is one of the best renewable energy sources in coastal area and becoming popular around the world due to its own facilities. Ocean wave energy can play a vital role for producing electricity as new source of renewable energy to the off-grid power connection in isolated areas, namely Sandwip, in Bangladesh. Ocean wave energy having environmental friendly is the only sustainable solution of secure energy system in coastal area. Bangladesh has a huge potential of tidal power at different locations. It has a long costal area with 2-8 m tidal head/height rise and fall. This height is sufficient enough to produce power. So, tidal power has a bright future in Bangladesh. It can reduce the present energy crisis and improve the social, environmental and economic perspective of Bangladesh. But effective measures on this issue have not been considered sincerely.

In this research, the design and performance analysis of a radial flux outer rotor type PMA used for gearless, extremely low-speed, and small capacity wind turbine system has been discussed. The design has been simulated to analyze this PMA. The elementary configuration like material types, magnet types and additional electrical and mechanical parameters are studied, and the performances parameters of PMA are improved by changing these elementary electrical and mechanical parameters or some other related factors such as reducing the cogging effect. Cogging torque has been reduced by employing fractional slot per pole, width of slot opening, mounting of the magnets. Also the slot shape has been custom-made to increase the efficiency. The slot fill factor was improved by using different wire diameter used as winding coil. This improvement has been played a great role to reduce copper losses thereby improving the thermal condition of the slot. Finite element analysis (FEA) method was used to analyze this PMA in order to test the real time performance simulation with loss and cogging torque calculation. By taking all these considerations into account, higher efficiency from the outer rotor arrangement with minimum losses has been achieved.","PeriodicalId":404901,"journal":{"name":"2015 3rd International Conference on Green Energy and Technology (ICGET)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116115550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
