EPRC’s Green Energy initiatives tackles Bangladesh’s pressing energy and environmental challenges by advancing clean, renewable, and sustainable energy solutions—especially in underserved rural and peri-urban communities. Working alongside partner organizations and national and international experts, EPRC has implemented a range of innovative energy initiatives, including solar-powered pipeline water supply systems & alternative safe drinking water systems (PSF, AIRP, RO), solar home system, improved cooking stoves (ICS), and biogas plants in rural, urban and climate-vulnerable remote areas.

EPRC directly addresses the country’s heavy dependence on traditional biomass for cooking, a practice that fuels indoor air pollution, health hazards, and deforestation. By promoting cleaner cooking technologies and raising awareness of renewable energy options, EPRC is helping households transition to safer, more efficient alternatives.

By leveraging the country’s strong solar potential and biogas resources, EPRC works to overcome barriers related to cost, accessibility, and technical capacity, supporting the transition toward cleaner cooking, improved energy access, and reduced environmental impact.
