 Renewable energy: Prospects and trends in BangladeshM.F. Hossain, S. Hossain and M.J. Uddin Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2017, vol. 70, issue C, 44-49 Abstract: One important goal for any developing country is to establish and provide electric power for its citizens; an endeavor initiated by the Government of Bangladesh many years ago. Renewable energy is a key component for development and Bangladesh has already made significant strides in reaching most of the country's population; both in Urban and Rural areas. The renewable energy projects initiated by the Government are helping Private sector, Non-Government Organizations (NGOs), and Micro-Finance institutions expand the solar energy program, both in terms of Sustainability and Commercial viability. These projects are increasing awareness among consumers and suppliers of the benefits and the correct use of solar home systems. The study, therefore, investigates whether solar business industry should implement a common strategy to position itself in all over the country. The Authors outline the benefits of using solar energy and the possibilities regarding solar energy system in Bangladesh as well as the problems relating to this sector.
