A major renewable energy project is set to transform the Padma Bridge service areas (1, 2, and 3) into solar-powered hubs.
Bangladesh Bridge Authority has signed an agreement with Omera Renewable Energy Ltd. to implement a 6.03 MWp rooftop solar project.
The system will generate 9,000 MWh of clean power annually, cutting carbon emissions by 6,000 tons per year—the environmental equivalent of planting 250,000 trees or removing 1,200 fuel-driven cars from the roads.
Chief Engineer Ferdous Alam said, “This initiative reflects our commitment to sustainability and sets a benchmark for green energy integration in national infrastructure.”
