Energy and Climate Change Minister Greg Barker said: “International collaboration on research is vital to make renewable energy viable for developing countries and help tackle climate change. Through the Memorandum of Understanding, not only can we offer our world-leading expertise in sustainable energy solutions but we can also learn valuable lessons from countries that are undergoing rapid change.”
Access to energy services is a pre-condition for development. Bangladesh despite its vulnerability to climate change, has been experiencing sustained economic growth for more than a decade. It now faces big choices on the kind of energy infrastructure that it should develop to meet its ever increasing energy needs.
For Bangladesh to make those choices, it needs high quality research and development into energy systems and their interactions with society.
