Sustainable Energy Sector
“It is undeniable that fundamental need is to make the energy sector sustainable, secure, and disaster-resilient as it holds the lifeline of economic and social growth within planetary boundaries. One intrinsic challenge of energy for development in the context of Bangladesh is how to meet the increasing demand for energy services and under what fuel mix. “
