BREB to install 2,000 solar irrigation pumps; farmers can sell idle electricity to national grid
Bangladesh Rural Electrification Board (BREB) plans to install 2,000 solar irrigation pumps under a project — allowing farmers to sell their unconsumed electricity to the national grid. The solar power-run pumps will replace the existing conventional diesel-run machines in 21 districts under a pilot project, said officials at the BREB.
