Bangladesh and the UNDP have started a five year project to reduce urban emissions through energy efficient infrastructure and renewable energy. Supported by a 3.7 million USD grant from the Global Environment Facility, the initiative focuses on Dhaka and Chittagong. The project targets a reduction of 1.5 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions. Key priorities include the development of investment grade projects for rooftop solar, waste to energy solutions, and energy efficient building retrofits.
