An approach to increase the power output of Karnafuli Hydroelectric Power Station: A step to sustainable development in Bangladesh's energy sector.

Renewable energy has become the most prominent source of energy to reduce carbon emissions around the globe. Undoubtedly, hydro energy is very much clean energy among other sources. In Bangladesh, hydro energy is available only in a specific southern area contributing several hundred megawatts to th...
