Bangladesh wants to become the world’s first “solar nation” by 2021

The Bangladeshi government wants every household in the nation to be solar powered by 2021. In the race to become the “first solar nation,” they hope to achieve this goal by focusing on what they call solar home systems (SHS). Solar home systems are provided by the government to homes that do not have access to the main power grid, thus supplying power where there previously was none.

Good idea! They don't have to build the power line infrastructure they would have had doing this. I'd add a few tens of gw of wind and tidal too. Maybe a few nuclear plants to assure baseload.

Who can argue with "provided by the government"?

Good luck with that shit.

For a developing country, building infrastructure and investing in yourself = growth of your economy. Nothing wrong with that...Of course, you don't have the slightest clue about how economics works. It doesn't matter who does it....

 

[Mr. H.]

Whatever you say, dear.

India and China are investing hundreds of billions of dollars on infrastructure, energy and science. Guess, who's countries are moving on up?? lol

America built most of our freeways, railroads, and dams based on government grants.

Bangladesh wants to be the first solar nation? Bangladesh is a city?

I guess when you make stuff up, facts don't matter.
