What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Government of Bangladesh issued the “Special Solar Power Installation Ordinance, 2026” on October 19, 2026, allowing private solar investors to deploy projects up to 5 megawatts on rooftops, courtyards, and water bodies. The ordinance establishes two models: OPEX, where a solar company pays and is repaid through electricity production, and CAPEX, where the owner pays for the system and retains it.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The initiative is designed to reduce Bangladesh's dependence on imported fuel, a necessity given global energy price volatility stemming from the Middle East conflict. The government aims to achieve 3,000-4,000 megawatts of renewable capacity through these smaller, scattered projects.

Bangladesh is facing warnings of economic stagnation and financial strain due to the escalating Middle East conflict, which has caused sharp increases in fuel prices.
