Build an EcoVillage to Save Our Mangrove Forest

National grid is not enough for us. Bangladesh is a very populated country. The production of electricity is not enough to support them all. Load shading is occurred fluently, specially in village area. In Bangladesh electricity is generally produced from hydro, gas, furnace oil, diesel, coal, solar PV, power import. Most of this source is not renewable and negatively effect on the earth by damaging the environment.

It is high time to convert this by renewable energy. Hydro, solar, wind etc. can replace this source. In our county solar is going to be very popular. Many organizations are now promoting this. But still less than two percent of Bangladesh's electricity production was derived from renewable sources.

In eco village campus in Dacope a solar service station was installed. The capacity of the station is 18Kw/h. The ecovillage campus is running through this. Not only the general activity of the campus but also the village people charge their van and auto from this station. Water filtration station purify water by reverse osmosis which is run by solar. The needed electricity is 7-8 Kw/h of the campus. The excess electricity is added in the national grid.
