SREDA and the UNDP have started a five year initiative to implement low-carbon urban development across Bangladesh. Supported by a 3.7 million dollar grant from the Global Environment Facility, the project focuses on rooftop solar, waste-to-energy solutions, and energy efficient building infrastructure in cities like Dhaka and Chittagong. The program aims to reduce over 1.5 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions. By developing investment-grade projects and sustainable business models, the initiative seeks to reduce the country's reliance on imported fuels and strengthen the transition to renewable energy.
