Bus Rapid Transit (BRT): Street light with 700 KW Solar Micro Grid
The authority of Bus Rapid Transit, also known as BRT, is going to execute the first project of Bangladesh with the concept of electrification on solar streetlights, and energy to functional electrification through micro grids over the roof of bus stoppages. Besides this, the real time monitoring and controlling of each streetlight will be ensured through the technically designed system. The total generation through micro grids of the project will be 700 KW. It will be a milestone project of the locality of Dhaka and Gazipur.
The name of the project is: Design, Supply and Installation of Solar-Powered Highway Lighting along the BRT Corridor including the provision of Solar Panels at Bus Stations under Greater Dhaka Sustainable Urban Transport Project (BRT, Gazipur-Airport).
InGen technology Limited has been awarded to conduct supply, installation and commissioning of this iconic project. It is believed that, through execution of this project, Bangladesh will enter a new solution on LED streetlights project with solar powered microgrid system.
