History
At the time of partition of Indo-pak sub-continent, in the year 1947 when the British colonial rulers left, power generation and distribution of this part of the country were in the hands of some private companies. The power supply to then 17 provincial districts was within the township in a limited way. The generation voltage was 400 volts. Power used to be supplied to most of the districts during nighttime only. Only exception was Dhaka City where power used to be supplied by two 1500 kW generators and the generation voltage was 6600 volts and this was the highest supply voltage. There was no long distance transmission lines. Besides power used to be generated by some industries (tea, sugar and textiles) and railway workshops. Dhakeswari Cotton Mills, Pahartali Railway workshop, Saidpur Railway workshop and Sugar Mills were amongst them. In aggregate the generation capacity of the country was 21 MW. The generation capacity of the power utility companies together was only 7 (seven) MW and there was no transmission system.
East-West Interconnector across River Jamuna
In 1948, Electricity Directorate was created in order to plan and improve power supply situation. In 1959, Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) was created and the power sector really started working satisfactorily. In 1960, Electricity Directorate was merged with WAPDA. The basic philosophy was to give more autonomy to an organization for development of this basic infrastructure. At that time relatively higher capacity plants were built at Siddhirganj, Chittagong and Khulna (highest plant size was only 10 MW Steam Turbine at Siddirganj). At the same time Kaptai dam was under construction under Irrigation department. Unit size of Kaptai was 40 MW, which for that time was considered to be a large power plant. Side by side construction of Dhaka-Chittagong 132 KV transmission line was in progress. Construction of Kaptai dam and commissioning of Dhaka-Chittagong 132 KV transmission line in the year 1962 may be taken as milestone of power development of this country.
In 1972, after the emergence of Bangladesh through a bloody War of Liberation as an independent state, Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) was created as a public sector organization to boost the power sector.
During mid 1970s government emphasized on the rural electrification for achieving a desirable social upliftment in the country. A different approach and a new model was considered for undertaking a comprehensive scheme. Thus the Government created Rural Electrification Board (REB) in October 1977. Later in 1991 Dhaka Electric Supply Authority

(DESA) was created basically to operate and develop distribution system in and around Dhaka (including the metropolitan city) and bring about improvement of customer service, collection of revenue and lessen the administrative burden of BPDB.
Kaptai dam
Public investments and state ownership have been the traditional means to exercise control over the electricity sector. Government regulated the natural monopoly of power supply primarily to protect the consumer’s interest. The situation is fast changing. Structural changes are taking place and new corporate characters are emerging. The gradual expansion of the infrastructure has also been justified by the need for realizing social goods relating to rural electrification and low cost electricity supply to the public.
As on June 2006, in FY 2006, BPDB has total installed capacity of 5245 MW at 103 units (BPDB 3985 MW at 66 Unit and IPP (mixed) 1260 MW at 37 units) of Power Plants located at different parts of the country. The main fuel used for power generation is indigenous gas. Total 15,417 Gwh gross energy was generated in the public sector power plant under BPDB. In addition, total 8286 Gwh of energy was purchased by BPDB from Independent Power Producers (IPP) in the private sector. The maximum demand served during peak hours is 4130 MW in September 17, 2007. The transmission network of BPDB (now PGCB) is 3919 route km long comprising 230, 132 and 66 KV lines. The total numbers of grid sub-stations are 7 (total 93 including PGCB & Others) and the total capacity is 13,309 MVA as on .
In FY 2008-09, BPDB had about 12,264 employees of which 2,442 were of supervisory level (holding positions of sub-assistant engineer or higher or equivalent) as on 07/07/2009.

Generation
Different types of power plants generate electricity and synchronize it with the national grid. There are some isolated diesel power stations at remote places and islands which are not connected with the National Grid.Terminal voltage of different generators are 11 KV, 11.5 KV and 15.75 KV.
In the Eastern Zone (eastern side of river Jamuna), electricity is generated from indigenous gas and a small percentage through hydro power. In the Western Zone, Coal and imported liquid fuel is used for generation of electricity. The fuel cost per unit generation in the Western Zone is much higher than that of the Eastern Zone. Therefore, as a policy, low cost electricity generated in the Eastern Zone is transferred to the Western Zone through the 230 kV East-West Inter connector transmission line.

The accepted methodology for BPDB's power system planning is to prepare a least-cost system expansion plan. This approach assumes the demand function to be a given, postulates system expansion sequences to meet the demand and then goes on to analyze the alternatives, eventually selecting the sequence that has the lowest economic cost. This basic approach was also followed in the Power System Master Plan (PSMP)
The Power System Master Plan (PSMP) was updated by BPDB in 2005 with the help of Nexant,USA as consultants under the Technical Assistance from Asian Development Bank (ADB). In the PSMP of 2005 least-cost power system expansion, especially generation and transmission expansion plans were prepared covering a period of 20 years (2005-2025). The addition sequences are being reviewed by BPDB incorporating latest changes in power developments. BPDB has got short-term, mid-term and long-term plan for Power Development. The projects under short-term plan are at various stages of implementation.
Generation Planning
DEMAND FORECAST:
In the Power System Master Plan(PSMP) of 1995 benchmark load forecast was based on about 8% growth rate. However, due to shortage in generation. capacity, the actual demand could not be supplied for the last few years. The maximum demand served so far is 3782.1 MW(30.10.2005). The electricity development is required to be accelerated to increase access and attain economic development. The desirable economic growth rate would be about 6-7% p.a. Based upon the Reference Forecast the anticipated peak demand would be about 5112 MW in FY2007, 9786 MW in FY2015 and 13,993 MW in 2020. According to PSMP- 2005 year-wise demand forecast is given below.

Generation Planning:
Generation Planning is the most important part of the power system and the reliability of the whole power system depends largely on the reliability of power generating system. The generation in the system should be such that it can supply the demand at all times under the outage of normal maintenance and forced outage. To develop generation
addition sequence Power System Master Plan of 1995 used PC-based WASP (Weign Automatic System Planning Package). This software determines least-cost generation addition sequences based upon the load characteristics, schedule maintenance, forced outage, and reliability level plant cost etc. The least cost generation addition sequence includes peak and base load plants of optimum unit size. Since then BPDB has been using PC-based WASP for generation planning. Annual LOLP (LOSS-OF LOAD PROBABILITY) of 1% is being used as reliability criteria. The equivalent to about 4 days/year of LOLE (LOSS-OF-LOAD-EXPECTATION).
Raozan 210 MW Thermal Power Plant
Indigenous natural gas, coal and hydro resources are mainly considered for generation planning as fuel. In case of generation plant sitting regional balance in generation is being given due importance. Other factors such as availability of fuel, cooling water, transportation of heavy equipment, proximately to grid network & load center etc. are also considered for plant sitting. Five Year Plan is prepared based on the least-cost generation addition sequence and latest progress made in this sector. List of generation projects in Five Year Plan (2006/07 - 2011/12) is attached.

Distribution lines through a country-side of Bangladesh
For the development of distribution system in the urban areas, BPDB takes different Town Distribution Projects. Before taking any Town Distribution Project, a study is conducted to asses different types of works required for the development. Similarly Rural Electrification Board develops distribution system in the rural areas through different Rural Electrification Program.
The objective of distribution planning is to assure that the growing demand for electricity in terms of increasing growth rate and high load density, can be satisfied in an optimum way.
Distribution planning starts at customer level. The demand, type, load factor and customer load characteristics dictate the type of distribution system required. The most important considerations for short term planning are:
Minimizing the cost of laterals, feeders, sub-transmission systems, substations, equipment required for control and protection and cost of losses while respecting the limits set by permissible voltage values, voltage dips and flicker
Maintaining service continuity, reliability and security of the system
Taking into account factors like transformer impedance, insulation levels, availability of spare transformers and mobile substations, dispatch of generation and rates that are charged to customers
For long term planning, the factors that are to be considered are:
The timing, location and type of energy demand The duration and frequency of outage of equipment Labor and money Increasing fuel costs Increasing or decreasing prices of alternative energy sources Changing socio-economic conditions Regulations of Federal and State governments
Distribution planning involves various activities like load forecasting (type, location and amount), electrical and mechanical design, economic and other considerations in planning. Automation has also become important in distribution planning.
Overall Power System Configuration
The sites selected for new thermal plants as part of the generation planning process, by WASP III Plus, is reviewed for power flow considerations, by CYME, identified in the transmission planning studies.
The recommended system expansion sequence may be influenced by the availability and timing of uncertain developments. It may, therefore, be necessary to develop and analyze alternative sequences which would identify the next-best expansion paths for the power sector, if the preferred options were not available. This information is not only essential to the development of a definitive plan of action for the power sector, but it also provides information on the economic costs of any constraints to the development of a least-cost expansion program.
The Base Case is then subjected to sensitivity analyses to test its robustness to changes in key input parameters, such as load growth rates, discount rates, fuel costs and escalation, fuel availability, etc.
Renewable Energy Development & Energy Efficiency Measure of BPDB.
Date June 2006
1. Solar Energy
Bangladesh Government has taken a solar energy development programme in the Chittagong hill tracts area. These
projects are being financed by the fund allocated from the hill tracts ministry. The project is constituted by 2(two) phases.
The first phase has already been completed in Juraichhri area of Rangamati district. As many as 400 nos of solar panels
have been installed there. Installation work of the 2nd phase has also been taken up in Thanchi Upozila of Rangamati
district. About 400 nos of panel has been installed there within last 6 months. The total project includes, 600 Solar Home
Systems of 120 Wp each, 20 sets Solar PV Street Light Systems of 75 Wp each, 2 set Solar PV Submersible Water
Pumps of 50,000 liters per day lifting capacity of each pump of 1800 WP(15X120Wp) each, 6 Sets of Solar PV Vaccine
Refrigerators for the Health Care Centers of 360 Wp(3X120Wp) each .1 Sets of 10 KW Centralized AC Market
Electrification Systems for the electrification.
Another Solar Electrification project is going on at Thanchi Upozila at Rangamati district. It consists 600 Sets Solar Home
system of 120 Mp each, 2 Sets of Solar PV Vaccine Refrigerators for the Health Care Centers of 360 Wp(3X120Wp) each
, 10 sets Solar PV Street Light Systems of 75 Wp each, 1 set Solar PV Submersible Water Pumps of 50,000 liters per day
lifting capacity of each pump of 1800 WP(15X120Wp) each.
2. Wind Energy Program Taken Up By BPDB
Bangladesh government has taken up a project for installation of 8 x 225 KW wind mills in different places of coastal area.
Before installation of wind mill,s a wind profile survey program was taken up in the financial year 2003-04. The source of
fund was from GOB won resource. Although a fund of about 1.9 crore has been allocated by the government for the
installation of wind measuring towers and wind study, no such fund was allocated for installation of wind mills. Bangladesh
power Development Board has taken up a pilot project for installation of 4x225 KW wind energy power station at Muhuri
Dam area of feni district from its own source of revenue fund. The machines have already been installed there.
Provisional test run shows satisfactory performance of the mills. These machines were hooked up with nearby REB 11 KV
feeder . 4 nos of wind measuring tower at a hight of 50 meters were installed at Muhuri Dam (feni), Moghnama ghat (Cox-
bazar), Purki Saikat (Patenga) and Kuakata area. The speed and direction of wind is being measured by two
anemometers in each place at a hight of 30 and 50 meters respectively. A comparative and comprehensive study of the
data available shows that there exist a satisfactory potential of installation of wind mills in Bangladesh.
A project has been taken from BPDB own fund at Kutubdia island named “1000 KW Wind-Battery Hybrid Power Plant
Project”. Tender evaluation is under process for this project.
3. Micro hydro project
Some small potential of mini hydro power generation are available in hill tracts area of Bangladesh. At Borcol area of
Rangamati district a 50 KW generator has been installed. No fund has yet been allocated from the government for this
purpose. BPDB has completed a pilot project for installing 1x 50 KW mini hydro plant at Borcol water fall from its own
revenue fund.
4. CFL (compact florescent lamp)
Bangladesh government has allocated an amount of 1(one) crore taka from its own source of fund against greater
Chittagong power distribution project. A comprehensive study on the requirement and capacity of the lamps was
completed. According to the requirement 21000 nos of 23 watt and 3000 nos of 14 watt lamp have already been procured
and installed.
5. Sugar Co-generation
There is a good prospect of sugar Co-generation power plant installation in 50 sugar mills in Bangaladesh. If government
allows and allocate fund for feasibility study and there after installation of as many as 10-15 nos. of generator having 10-
15 MW capacity each in the northern zone of Bangladesh. where maximum numbers of bagasse could be available from
the sugar mills. This type of generation will help minimizing the low voltage problem in the remote and national grid. Cost
will also be economical compared to the cost of generation of electricity by using fuel oil.
Environmental Consideration
View of Kaptai Dam
Due consideration is given to the basic environmental requirements of the overall planning methodology of BPDB. Principal considerations are the amount of stack gas and cooling water emissions from thermal plants, and it is ensured that transmission line corridors do not infringe on any known protected areas. However, the non-mechanized farming practices in Bangladesh are generally such that once line construction is completed, active farming resumes directly under the lines, and often between the legs of individual towers. Recognizing also that there is a growing shortage of farmland in Bangladesh, an effort is made to redevelop existing sites wherever possible.
