AMAR GRAM AMAR SHOHOR (MY VILLAGE, MY CITY)

With years of experience and expertise, BSREA endeavoured to create an unique platform to turn each village into a role model for sustainable development in line with the Bangladesh Government’s ambitions. The aim is not to turn villages into cities, rather to ensure that the equivalent comfort and facilities of city life will be available in villages without harming the nature and environment. As a smart village, it will have all provisions of renewable energy and energy efficiency to ensure energy security in most efficient way. Bangladesh is already well acclaimed for its largest off grid solar programme. The proposed initiative will not only reduce internal migration from village to city, but also enhance quality of sustainable economic growth. A stakeholder event was organized by BSREA in April 2019 in collaboration with SREDA and development partners, including GIZ and IDCOL.

RESPONSIBLE USE OF ELECTRICITY

Climate adaptation and protection is a leading global issue that is vital for a climate vulnerable country like Bangladesh. With Bangladesh’s ambition to become an advanced economy by 2041, BSREA is particularly supporting the Government towards climate change mitigation. In doing so, not only does BSREA promote renewable energy in a business viable way, but also a campaign on responsible use of electricity to develop an energy conscious society was launched in February 2018. As part of the campaign, BSREA will recognize events and panel discussions for sharing experience and success stories, and conduct public awareness programmes for quality use of electricity. with collective efforts, BSREA believes Bangladesh will achieve its development target with minimum energy consumption compared to other developed countries in the world.

ACHIEVING SDGs

Development of renewable energy and optimum implementation of sustainable development goals (SDGs) are closely linked and ought to be propelled forward hand in hand. RE augmentation could be an integral driving force for achieving SDG targets, Out of 17 SDGs, Goal 7 (ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all) and goal 13 (take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts) are directly linked with proper promotion of renewable energy sources. Yet achievement of other goals: Goal 1 (no poverty), Goal 2 (zero hunger), Goal 3 (ensure healthy lives and well being for all), Goal 5 (gender equality), Goal 6 (clean water and sanitation), Goal 8 (decent work and economic growth), Goal 9 (industry, innovation and infrastructure), Goal 10 (reduce inequalities), Goal 11 (sustainable cities and communities), Goal 12 (responsible consumption and production), Goal 15 (life on land) are also inter-related with sustainable energy promotion.

BSREA promotes and supports the government and private sector to implement environment friendly energy generation towards achieving SDGs.

GREEN FINANCE

Without access to finance, commercialization of renewable energy will be at stake. BSREA thus advocates for Green Finance for the private sector of Bangladesh in order to encourage investment in renewable energy. In doing so, BSREA not only collaborates with Bangladesh Bank and other commercial banks and financial institutes but also with various development partners.
