Present Structure of Power Sector • Apex Institution • Power Division, Ministry of Power, Energy & Mineral Resources (MPEMR) • Regulator • Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) • Generation • Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) • Ashuganj Power Station Company Ltd. (APSCL) • Electricity Generation Company of Bangladesh (EGCB) • North West Power Generation Company Ltd. (NWPGCL) • Independent Power Producers (IPPs) • Transmission • Power Grid Company of Bangladesh Ltd (PGCB) • Distribution • Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) • Dhaka Power Distribution Company (DPDC) • Dhaka Electric Supply Company Ltd (DESCO) • West Zone Power Distribution Company (WZPDC) • Rural Electrification Board (REB) through Rural Co-operatives
Primary Fuel Supply Options • Gas: Only 16 TCF proven reserve. No significant gas discovery in recent years. Depleting gas reserve restricts gas based generation expansion • Hydro: Present capacity 230 MW. No further significant potential • Coal: Total 3.2 billion ton reserve in 5 mines. Mines are located at dense populated area. • Oil: Depends on importing. • Renewable: Present capacity only 70 MW. High prospect of solar. 9
Present Installed Generation Capacity • Considering 20 % Maintenance and Forced Outage, Available Generation Capacity is about 7500 MW without fuel constraint 10
Estimated Future Demand MW 14
Challenges • Huge demand supply gap causes regular load shedding • High growth rate of electricity due to new electrification & industrial growth • Fuel crisisdue to depleting gas reserve • Arranging fund for investment
Scopes & Prospects • Efficiency improvement of existing power plants. • Fuel diversification. • Regional power trading.
Efficiency improvement of existing power plants. Total gas based power plants: 6500MW Average efficiency of gas based power plants: 30% Efficiency of modern CCPP (Gas)= 60% Possible output using same amount of gas= 13000MW
Fuel Diversification Coal: Local Coal + Imported Coal Solar:
Road Map for Coal Power Development K-D-P 6x1000 MW Meghnaghat 2x660MW Chittagong 4x660MW Moheshkhali/Matarbari 4x660MW Railway Khulna 2x660MW Total 14,000MW Coal Center Chittagong Matarbari Sonadia Island : Potential Coal PS : Potential Coal Center : Ocean-going vessel : Transship
Solar Power • Huge potential in solar • Land constraint • Rooftop Solar Panels • Islands for Mega Solar Bangladesh
Hydro Power Potential & Transmission corridor Solar Power • India needs corridor • Nepal & Bhutan has excess potential Huge prospect in solar Main limitation: Land constraint Islands can be identified for solar (2000MW) 60GW 80GW 30GW Bangladesh
Regional Power Exchange: Possibilities 6.5GW 6x6.5GW 1GW 6.5GW 2GW 4-6GW 1GW 1GW
Recommended Strategic Policy • Ensuring Investment Friendly Environment • Efficient use of gas: Simple Cycle to Combined Cycle Conversion • Coal Policy • Deep Sea Port & Coal Centre • Locations Identification for Mega Solar • Friendly Relation with Neighbor’s • Participation on Hydro Power Development Projects (India, Nepal & Bhutan)
