World's fossil fuels are disappearing rapidly due to multidimensional uses, mainly for electricity generation. Nevertheless, Bangladesh has also a very limited source of natural gas and coal for electricity production. Hence, the major goal of this review is to outlines the present status of installed renewable generations in the country and predict the future prospect. Despite the existence of literature's abundance on Bangladesh's potential for renewable energy (RE), and their prospects, nothing is covered about the phases of renewable energy projects like projects already completed and running, projects implementation ongoing, and projects under planning. Therefore, an endeavor has been made for the first time to expose Bangladesh's three phases of renewable energy, including projects that are currently operational, those that are still being implemented, and projects that are still in the planning stages. Data was collected from Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB), Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS), Infrastructure Development Company Limited (IDCOL), International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), Renewable Energy Policy Network for the 21st Century (REN21), International Hydropower Association (IHA), Sustainable and Renewable Energy Development Authority (SREDA), Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief (MODMR), and Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral Resources (MOPMER). Based on these data, this research suggests that Bangladesh is generating 723.26 Megawatt (MW) electricity from renewable sources including 67.61% from solar, 31.80% from hydro, 0.58% from others including wind, biogas and biomass, where 489 MW electricity makes from over 6 million (63, 25, 278) of installed solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems till mid of April 2021 and a total of 6,408,721 numbers of RE plants are completed and running. Bangladesh is a prospective area for harvesting solar, wind, and bioenergy with limited hydropower, despite the fact that over 42% of rural societies still lack access to electricity. This review will help investors, shareholders, researchers and decision makers of both public and private sector to realize the latest renewable energy situation of Bangladesh, and for future planning and management in a sustainable way.
由于多方面的用途，主要是用于发电，世界化石燃料正在迅速消失。然而，孟加拉国用于电力生产的天然气和煤炭资源也非常有限。因此，本综述的主要目标是概述该国可再生能源发电装置的现状，并预测未来前景。尽管有大量关于孟加拉国可再生能源潜力及其前景的文献，但对于可再生能源项目的各个阶段，如已建成并运行的项目、正在实施的项目以及正在规划的项目，却没有涉及。因此，首次努力揭示孟加拉国可再生能源的三个阶段，包括目前正在运行的项目、仍在实施的项目以及仍处于规划阶段的项目。数据收集自孟加拉国电力发展委员会（BPDB）、孟加拉国统计局（BBS）、基础设施发展有限公司（IDCOL）、国际可再生能源机构（IRENA）、21世纪可再生能源政策网络（REN21）、国际水电协会（IHA）、可持续和可再生能源发展局（SREDA）、灾害管理和救济部（MODMR）以及电力、能源和矿产资源部（MOPMER）。基于这些数据，本研究表明，孟加拉国正在通过可再生能源发电723.26兆瓦，其中太阳能占67.61%，水电占31.80%，包括风能、沼气和生物质能在内的其他能源占0.58%。截至2021年4月中旬，超过600万个（6325278个）已安装的太阳能光伏（PV）系统发电489兆瓦，共有6408721个可再生能源发电厂已建成并运行。尽管超过42%的农村社区仍然无法用上电，但孟加拉国仍是一个太阳能、风能和生物能源开发前景广阔但水电资源有限的地区。本综述将有助于公共和私营部门的投资者、股东、研究人员和决策者了解孟加拉国最新的可再生能源状况，并以可持续的方式进行未来规划和管理。
