Renewable Energy of Bangladesh for Carbon-free Clean Energy Transition (C2ET)

At the beginning of the 21
^st
-century global warming is one of the alarming issues that causes the imbalance of living beings' relations on Earth due to the increase of CO

and greenhouse gas on burning fossil fuels for electricity generation. With the effect of modernization and industrialization, Bangladesh and many countries worldwide generate power very rapidly from fossil fuels. Due to overuse, the world's fossil reserves will soon be depleted. Considering the above problems, Bangladesh needs to depend entirely on renewable energy (RE) to meet the growing electricity demand. The proposed C2ET strategy will pave the way for a bright future of green energy in Bangladesh, taking into account the various sources of recent power generation and the immense potential of RE. The model will make the entire country's energy system affordable and user-friendly by controlling it through an intelligent energy management system (EMS). The suggested strategy will formulate the future RE mix by thoroughly analyzing Bangladesh's ecological-environmental-economic systems. Following the outline, Bangladesh will meet its electricity demand from about 85% RE and 15% nuclear power by 2050. The power generated from RE will be used in any emergency condition as it will be stored on a short, medium, and long-time basis. There will be no need to generate electricity from fossils. Old and running fossil power plants will be gradually shut down. So, being a developed country, the carbon emissions tax on Bangladesh will no longer be effective. The suggested C2ET would be a ground-breaking and timely solution to preserve the world ecologically pleasant while also keeping up with the rising globalization system without jeopardizing the Earth's equilibrium.
