Let the scorching sun help keep Bangladesh cool

Bangladesh’s power policy is caught in a costly contradiction. The state continues to spend enormous sums subsidising electricity, with Tk 37,000 crore allocated for power subsidy in FY2025-26 after the revised figure for FY2024-25 rose to Tk 62,000 crore. Yet even as the country struggles under a subsidy-heavy, import-dependent power model, it continues to make renewable adoption more difficult than sound judgment would suggest.
