Dipal C Barua Founder & Chairman Building energy businesses: Knowledge sharing workshop with business incubators & entrepreneurs from Asia & Africa
Energy Access 1. Installing Solar Home System (SHS) to Rural Bangladesh @ over 5000 per month. 2. Installed 107,000 SHS till August 2014 with over 600,000 Beneficiaries of Solar Home System all over Bangladesh. 3. Installing ICS (Improve Cook Stove) by replacing traditional stoves which are the treat and cause of smoke related degasses. 4. Creating Energy Entrepreneurs in rural Bangladesh to provide after sell services. Best practices in decentralised renewable energy access: sharing knowledge for renewable energy enterprise development
Entrepreneurship/Enterprise Development Bright Green Energy Foundation (BGEF) has been developing women entrepreneurs in the rural level since its inception by providing On Hand Training Creating Hundreds of rural technicians. Setting up village base energy related businesses such as solar charging stations. Best practices in decentralised renewable energy access: sharing knowledge for renewable energy enterprise development
Planned activities 1. To establish a 100% RE (Renewable Energy Village) a. Solar Home System for environment friendly and healthy Lighting to replace hazardous kerosene lanterns. b. Pure Drinking water (Pumps runs by Solar Energy) c. Solar irrigation pumps for agriculture d. Install Improve Cook Stove (ICS) for cooking need to save over 60% burning wood and smoke free healthier cooking environment. e. Install bio gas plants in the household with 4 or more cattle's for the cooking needs. 2. Train village women for the renewable Energy Technology to take after sell services of the CleanTech to the beneficiaries. 3. Establishing Solar Charging Station for women under the women entrprnuership program.
