Energy for Sustainability

Abstract
In recent years, Bangladesh has suffered from sporadic shortages in electricity due to the rising energy demand faster than expected. Numerous policies have been reformed by the government over the past decades to balance country’s electricity demand and to create level playing field for both public and private sectors in order to bring reliable energy for more Bangladeshis in a smartest ways. Recently, the government has declared vision of electricity for all by 2021. Even though numbers of strategic initiatives have been put in place, the power sector vision has yet to be achieved. Thus, the power sector was perceived to be riddled with some fundamental weaknesses, which necessitated initiation of the reform process in the sector. This paper highlights a comprehensive overview of Bangladesh’s energy sector and identifies a set of challenges for policy makers attempting to influence the process of transforming the energy sector. Further concentrations were given on the basic understanding of overarching energy policy framework and features in energy sector. Finally, key energy challenges appearing across individual energy sectors were discussed and offered a strategic perspective into Bangladesh’s energy sector as a whole.
