Dhaka, May 4 -- Energy experts and civil society leaders on Monday welcomed the government's plan to generate 10,000 megawatts (MW) of solar power by 2030, calling it a timely and strategic initiative, but warned that major policy and implementation gaps could hinder its success.

The observations came at a press conference at the Jatiya Press Club where speakers highlighted both the urgency and complexity of Bangladesh's transition to renewable energy.

The press conference was organised by ActionAid Bangladesh, the Just Energy Transition Network Bangladesh (JETNET-BD), and the Bangladesh Sustainable and Renewable Energy Association.
