Abstract: Based on global and regional geopolitical considerations, as well as the challenges posed by climate change, Bangladesh has made commitments in both national and international levels to increase the proportion of RE within its energy sector. But the measures being taken are insufficient to fulfil the commitments as the domestic energy policy landscape is yet to establish RE as a feasible power generation source to meet the domestic requirements. This study will identify the barriers and weaknesses within Bangladesh’s energy policy landscape that hinder the attraction of domestic and foreign investments in RE-based power generation. For Bangladesh, a few additional policy instruments may be helpful to support the RE within the existing policy landscape.
