Solar Energy Organization and Management

Bangladesh is transitioning towards renewable energy, particularly solar power, due to a reliance on fossil fuels for electricity generation. The government is prioritizing solar energy projects, including rooftop systems and floating solar, while facing challenges such as land acquisition. The demand for solar rooftops is increasing in the RMG sector as companies seek to reduce costs amidst rising fuel prices, presenting opportunities for improved technology and quality in solar installations.

Organization and Management


Bangladesh is currently experiencing a crisis as a result of both internal and
international issues. Fossil fuels like natural gas and oil are used to create
around 85% of the country’s power, with natural gas serving as the main fuel
source. The country has begun focusing on the integration of renewable energy
following the Paris Agreement. Numerous infrastructural projects are being
developed that include mega projects and industrial zones. These industrial
zones and parks are planned to be eco-friendly with the inclusion of solar
energy and wastewater management. The government has planned to prioritize
solar energy in the long run. Difficulties in attaining land for solar parks and solar
grid facilities have shifted the focus towards rooftop systems with net metering
systems and DRE solutions.
Floating solar is given priority considering the enormous amount of water
available. However, at present, floating solar is still in a nascent state as enough
research has not been done on its prospects.
The overall renewable energy landscape is divided between small-scale
projects and large-scale projects. But most capacity resides in large-scale
solar projects, including solar-powered rooftops, irrigation, mini-grids,
microgrids, nano-grids, and solar charging stations. Most small-scale
renewable energy projects consist of solar-powered home systems and
streetlights.
At present, 3 kinds of solar projects are taking place in the country:
captive solar rooftops, solar IPPs, and solar home systems. solar home
systems experienced significant growth in the last 5 years due to IDCOL’s
SHS program. However, with the current electrification rate being 98%,
the rural population got access to electricity, and this caused slow growth
in the sector.
As the growing RMG sector is following compliant criteria to capture more
market share, demand for solar rooftops has been growing. Most of the
apparel industry players use captive power plants to generate electricity.
However, the current rise in fuel prices has opted them to shift towards
renewable solutions. This growing demand will help Dutch players to capitalize
on their advanced technology. the financial burden on implementers will help
them easily install solar energy. Awareness among smaller and medium-sized
players regarding the potential business case and benefits of solar installation
can be explored. This will reduce the dependency on low-quality PV panels,
inverters, and transformers with high-quality equipment, leading to increased
yields.
