Liverpool Geographer explores renewable energy in Bangladesh
Dr Sam Wong has recently returned from field research in Bangladesh where he has been exploring solar energy and water management work. Sam is investigating the role the Word Bank play in
promoting renewable energy in developing countries, analysing its policies and underlying framework to understand how effective its energy interventions are. His work on solar lighting in Bangladesh and solar lanterns in India has highlighted the need to look beyond economic factors and pay more attention to the social norms that shape people’s energy needs in poorer communities.
