Record heat driving record power generation, even as loadshedding increases

Staff Reporter:

The country’s power generation increased further, setting a new record on Tuesday with the production reaching 15,626 MW at 9 pm on night.

According to a statement of the Power Division, the country set the new record surpassing the previous production of 15,604 MW at 9 pm on Monday.

Officials at the state-owned Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB), said the resting of operation of the diesel-fired and gas fired more power plants attributed to this new record.

They also said import of power from the Adani Power-built thermal power plant for Bangladesh also played a role in this regard.

The country has started importing about 759 MW from Indian Adani Group’s Godda power plant in Jharkhand.

Now Bangladesh’s installed grid power generation capacity is over 25,000 MW.
