Bangladesh launches $123 million rooftop solar fund

SolarNews Brief

Bangladesh has created a $123 million fund to provide concessional financing for rooftop solar and other renewable-energy projects. The government is also seeking support from international lenders as it targets 4 GW of rooftop capacity before next summer.

The fund will be distributed through IDCOL, BIFFL and PKSF using money from the current fiscal year's development budget. Eligible projects include net-metered rooftops, solar home systems, industrial photovoltaic installations and solar irrigation. Bangladesh currently has 1,852 MW of renewable capacity, including 1,473 MW of solar, so the financing program could materially accelerate distributed deployment.
