Advancing Bangladesh’s strategic commitment to sustainable infrastructure and climate-resilient energy structures, a state-of-the-art Renewable On-Grid Rooftop Solar Photovoltaic (PV) system was officially commissioned at the National Parliament House Sunday. Prime Minister and BNP Chairman Tarik Rahman graced the historic ceremony as the Chief Guest at the Parliament’s Oath Room Hall. The high-performance green energy installation is designed to optimize institutional energy self-sufficiency while systematically curtailing the carbon footprint of the nation’s prime legislative complex.
At the specific request of the Prime Minister, the formal unveiling and operational deployment of the infrastructure were executed by Speaker Major (Retd.) Hafiz Uddin Ahmad, Beer Bikram. Utilizing cutting-edge net-metering technology, the integrated rooftop arrays will seamlessly fulfill the internal load requirements of the Parliament House, with any surplus generation being instantly back-fed into the National Power Grid to augment the regional electricity supply matrix.
The high-level executive panel on the dais included Minister for Power, Energy and Mineral Resources Iqbal Hasan Mahmud, Minister of State for Power Anindya Islam Amit, and the Chief Whip of the National Parliament, Noorুল Islam Moni. In his ministerial briefing, Energy Minister Iqbal Hasan Mahmud detailed that this project serves as the blueprints for a nationwide sovereign initiative aimed at transitioning all key public sector, judicial, and legislative structures toward integrated solar-thermal and photovoltaic energy solutions under decentralized generation frameworks.
The state event was attended by an elite assembly of Cabinet Ministers, Ministers of State, Parliamentary Whips, Members of Parliament (MPs), the Senior Secretary of the Parliament Secretariat, and senior directors of the Prime Minister’s Press Wing. International environmental engineering consultants have highly lauded the deployment, noting that transforming the iconic architectural masterwork of the Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban into a sustainable “Green Complex” establishes an exemplary benchmark for national energy conservation policies across South Asia.
