Bangladesh Aims for Clean Energy Revolution with Hydrogen and Renewables
Key Ideas
  • Bangladesh plans to produce electricity from hydrogen, ammonia, solar, and wind power to meet energy needs by 2035.
  • The nation aims to achieve 40% clean fuel electricity by 2041, currently at 8.3% from renewables, with over 100 projects in development.
  • Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina highlights efforts to reduce dependency on natural energy sources like natural gas and fossil fuels through diversified energy projects.
  • By 2030, Bangladesh anticipates a significant reduction in natural fuel usage for electricity production through initiatives like nuclear, solar, and wind energy.
In a recent announcement, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina revealed Bangladesh's ambitious strategy to transition to cleaner energy sources by incorporating hydrogen, ammonia, and renewable energy solutions. With plans to test hydrogen fuel usage by 2035, Bangladesh aims to produce a significant portion of its electricity from clean fuels by 2041. The introduction of over 100 projects targeting 10,000 megawatts of electricity generation showcases the country's commitment to sustainable development. By leveraging nuclear, solar, and wind energy, Bangladesh seeks to decrease its reliance on depleting natural energy resources, aligning with global efforts to combat climate change. The establishment of a dedicated cell within the Ramadanath Prakritik Gas Company Limited to explore hydrogen production methods indicates a proactive approach towards embracing innovative energy solutions. Prime Minister Hasina's vision to lead Bangladesh towards a greener and more sustainable energy future reflects a positive outlook on the potential of hydrogen and renewables in the country's energy landscape.
