The document discusses the power sector in Bangladesh. It provides an overview of the sector including current generation capacity, transmission lines, distribution lines, and access to electricity. It describes the hierarchy of power sector structures and issues like transmission losses and interruptions. It notes a fundamental problem is a shortage of natural resources. There is a growing gap between electricity supply and demand. Initiatives to address this include adding 9,000 MW of new capacity and developing cross-border electricity trade with India. Ongoing power plant projects include a nuclear plant and coal plant. Meeting financing needs of $9.5 billion for generation and $9.52 billion for gas infrastructure by 2025 is a major challenge.

8. Initiatives for mitigation
5/14/2016
Steps taken to add around 9000 MW to the grid
Reached understanding with India for cross border trade
Renewable energy development through strengthening
SEDA
Development of new transmission facilities e.g. 400 KV
lines, NLDC, shunt compensation project etc.
Development of distribution network
DSM measures

New source
of energy is
necessary
13. Conclusion
Government is committed to realize it’s ‘Vision’.
Government is committed to ensure transparency in the
procurement process
Private Sector will play a key role to meet the challenge of
huge amount of financing requirement
Continuous efficiency improvement ensuring good
governance is key for sustainable development
Concerted efforts from all quarters can ensure affordable and
quality power supply to the people of Bangladesh
