Bangladesh : Electricity History

5. Bangladesh has also made significant progress in power and IT sector.
Located in South Asia, Bangladesh is the world’s eighth-most populous country and among the most densely populated countries with 1,188 people per square kilometre.
The population is very young, with just over half under 25 years of age, and there is an equal male-female split.
Since independence, Bangladesh has made significant improvements in human and social development indicators, including gender equality, universal primary education, food production, and population control. It has also made improvements in healthcare: life expectancy is higher than any other country in the region (except Nepal), while infant, under-five and maternal mortality rates are better than other countries in the region.
Bangladesh has also made significant progress in power and IT sector.

6. Bangladesh’s GDP has been growing at an average of 6% each year for the past ten years. However, it is still a low income economy with a GDP per capita of just over $800.
But there is great potential for growth – Bangladesh is committed to becoming a middle-income country by 2021, its 50th year of independence.
Economist Jim O’Neil believes that Bangladesh is part of the “next eleven,” a set of eleven countries with a high potential of becoming the world’s largest economies in the 21st century, along with the BRIC countries.

7. Energy Sector
The energy sector consists of electricity, gas, coal, liquid fuel, wind energy, solar and other non-petroleum fuel. These are all interlinked with the big focus on generation of electricity and the two primary fuels that Bangladesh possesses, gas and coal.
The critical role of assured supply of electricity at an affordable price for social and economic development is universally recognized.
The Government of Bangladesh has identified power supply as a major constraint on GDP growth, private investment and overall economic development.
It has, therefore, adopted a strong and well-rounded reform program to increase the supply of electricity involving substantial investment, sector reforms and regional co-operation.

8. Vision
To provide uninterrupted quality electricity to all people at a reasonable price by 2021

9. Mission To improve generation, transmission and distribution systems.
To ensure highest degree of quality service delivery
To ensure transparency and accountability in Power Sector
To ensure energy efficiency
To ensure financial viability of the entities
To reduce system loss
To build public private partnership
To develop co-operation with regional countries.

12. The key elements of power sector strategy :
A rapid growth in electricity production, distribution and consumption.
Mobilizing private investment in electricity production.
Enhancing the availability of primary fuel based on expansion of gas and coal production.
Improving power sector efficiency by reducing transmission and distribution losses.
Improving power-pricing policy for better demand management and for reducing the burden on the national budget.
Exploring electricity-trading options with neighbors (India, Nepal and Bhutan).
