renewable energy

ICDRET 2024 / In conversation with UIU’s Prof. Dr M. Rezwan Khan

Campus engaged in a one-on-one interview with Prof. Dr M. Rezwan, delving into discussions encompassing the conference and the renewable energy sector in general.

'High dependence on imported fossil fuels bringing trouble'

"The high dependence on imported fossil fuels has significantly impacted our energy system."

Why is renewable energy still neglected?

Government mustn’t keep depending on fossil fuel power plants

Clean energy goal far away

In a fresh push, Bangladesh entered its renewable energy era in 2017 with the launch of a 3MW solar power plant in Jamalpur’s Sharishabari. Ever since, the country has added only 459MW of renewable energy to the national grid.

World added 50% more renewable energy but more needed: IEA

According to IEA, renewable energy capacity worldwide increased by 50% year-on-year, but challenges remain

Corruption is dimming solar power, too

Bribe-taking officials, local leaders in CHT must be brought to book

Who will save the planet? Certainly not its killers.

Issues centring ecological protection are inherently political, but in this dying earth, these are repeatedly depoliticised.

Sustainable finance can catalyse Bangladesh’s renewable energy sector

Conventional finance alone will not help our nation to achieve its full renewable energy potential.

The many holes in Bangladesh’s energy master plan

The share of renewable energy is projected at merely 11 and 16 percent in 2041 and 2050.

Switching to renewables is easier than we think

Bangladesh’s progress towards switching to renewable energy has remained slow and uncertain.
