Bangladesh introduces BDT 10.50/kWh tariff for surplus rooftop solar

pv magazine reports that Bangladesh’s Power Division announced the incentive for eligible rooftop solar systems operating under the country’s net-metering regime. The BDT 10.50/kWh, or about USD 0.086/kWh, payment gives consumers a clearer economic reason to export surplus generation. The policy fits a broader push to expand renewables while improving energy security during periods of tight supply. For installers and C&I customers, the tariff can improve project economics, especially when rooftop PV is paired with batteries for self-consumption and backup value.
