BSEZ is spearheading a sustainable revolution in Bangladesh with its solar initiative. With a focus on reducing grid dependency, carbon emissions, and fostering a green economic zone, BSEZ is poised to transform the energy landscape in the country.

BSEZ’s collaborative efforts with Sumitomo Solar team underscore a commitment to understanding and implementing solar systems tailored to Bangladesh’s unique needs. Through meticulous feasibility studies, including thorough examination of existing solar installations across the country, BSEZ has honed its expertise in solar technology deployment.

BSEZ’s mission is the establishment of a green economic zone, where solar panels adorn tenant factory roofs as well as roofs of BSEZ facilities, harnessing the power of the sun to drive sustainable development. With an internal distribution line capable of transferring solar energy to tenants, BSEZ aim to mitigate power shortage issues while promoting a reliable and eco-friendly energy supply.

BSEZ’s solar initiative sets a precedent for sustainable development in Bangladesh. Our dedication to preserving the environment while fostering economic growth serves as an inspiration as we collectively strive towards a greener, more prosperous future.
