Farmers to get solar irrigation pumps within five years: PM

Prime Minister Tarique Rahman today said the government plans to replace diesel-powered irrigation pumps with solar-powered ones for farmers across the country within the next five years. Wherever water pumps are currently operated by diesel, we will gradually convert all of them to solar power within the next five years, InshaAllah, he said while replying to a supplementary question from Meherpur-1 lawmaker Md. Tajuddin Khan during the question-answer session in parliament this afternoon. Replying to the question whether the government had any plan to provide farmers with solar power free of cost instead of diesel-run engines for irrigation, the Prime Minister also outlined the governments plans to expand renewable energy, solar power plants and other alternative energy sources. He said the government, considering the countrys growing electricity demand, has identified renewable energy as a priority sector to reduce dependence on imported fuels. A National Renewable Energy Development Strategy for 2026-2030 has already been formulated. Under the strategy, targets have been set to generate at least 20 percent of total electricity from renewable sources by 2030 and at least 30 percent by 2040, he said. Considering the potential and feasibility, he said, targets have been set to generate 5,500 megawatts from [] The post Farmers to get solar irrigation pumps within five years: PM appeared first on Energy Bangla .
