Abstract

Demand for energy increases with population growth. Sustainable and affordable energy is the foremost need for Bangladesh that cannot depend on non-renewable energy source alone. With rapid urbanization, the country is also facing the challenge of managing solid waste. Turning municipal waste into biogas for mass usage is a solution that Bangladesh needs to adopt urgently. Practical Action committed to excel in its commitment to challenge poverty with technology, is working on turning waste into source of renewable energy. We believe, biogas from waste can highly contribute to the growing demand of energy in the country.
