About the conference

Eight editions of renewable energy research in Bangladesh

ICDRET brings together researchers, engineers, policy makers and industry practitioners working on renewable energy technology and its deployment. Since the first edition in 2009 the conference has grown into one of the region's established forums for work on solar, wind, biomass, storage and grid integration.

The 2027 edition is organised by the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering together with the Center for Energy Research at United International University. Papers are reviewed by an international technical committee, and accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore, subject to meeting IEEE Xplore's scope and quality requirements.
