Emran Hossain emranhossain006@gmail.com Md. Asaduzzaman mdasaduzzaman.ovi@gmail.com <p>In most cases, it is not possible to find the accident location very quickly result in delaying the assistance reached to the individual. The objective of this work is to locate a traffic accident by transmitting a message through a device installed inside the vehicle. An ultrasonic sensor is used in this work in a car alarm application to identify vehicles in unsafe areas. Additionally, an accelerometer and vibration sensors are used to accurately track the accident due to the vehicle's rapid acceleration and vibration. A serious accident can be detected using signals from an accelerometer and vibration sensors. When a vehicle is involved in an accident, the vibration sensor detects the signal instantly, and if the car flips over, the accelerometer sensor identifies the indication and directs it to the microcontroller. Consequently, the microcontroller warns the nearby police station or rescue team to send an alert message through the GSM module, together with the specific location. If the accident is minor or the risk is not imminent to anyone's safety, the communication can be switched off by the car user using a switch, saving the emergency rescue team precious time.</p> 2024-12-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of Energy & Technology (JET) https://rsepress.org/index.php/jet/article/view/85 A techno-economic viability analysis on grid integration of solar irrigation pumps in Bangladesh: prospects and challenges 2024-12-24T09:05:47+00:00 Md. Rashedul Alam rashed4912@gmail.com <p>Irrigation is an important area of Bangladesh where most cases it depends on fossil fuels either diesel-powered irrigation systems or grid electricity-operated irrigation systems. Solar irrigation is an alternative way to promote clean energy in the irrigation sector which is in line to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). Techno-economic viability of solar irrigation is an important issue to make acceptable to the farmers or end users. The government of Bangladesh published a dedicated grid integration guideline for solar irrigation pumps (SIP) as an alternative option to make the business viable of solar irrigation pumps. Interested solar irrigation pump operators can take this facility by adding grid integration-related connections and additional equipment to their project to supply surplus electricity into the distribution grid after irrigation uses. This paper analyzes the grid integration-related integration costing and surplus electricity pricing to understand the techno-economic viability of grid integration of solar irrigation pumps. According to the analysis result, higher capacity solar irrigation pumps are financially viable for grid integration up to a certain distance. Also, this study gives a financial viability analysis of the combined grid integration of multiple SIP.</p> 2024-12-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of Energy & Technology (JET)
