KMH Kabir, MK Uddin · 2015 · Journal of Environmental Science and Natural Resources

Summary. Bangladesh faces severe energy shortages that hinder economic growth. This paper analyzes renewable energy prospects in rural areas, focusing on solar power to meet unmet demand in remote and off-grid regions. The authors examine policy frameworks and government targets to generate 5% of electricity from renewables by 2015, scaling to 10% by 2020, and identify barriers and opportunities for rural renewable energy development.
