Demand Supply ScenarioDemand Supply Scenario

There is a huge gap between demand and supply Nexant projection at 2006- on the electricity demand by 2025

19312 MW if GDP growth rate is 5.2% (135MT coal +10 TCF gas) 41,899 MW if GDP growth rate is 8% (450 MT coal + 8 TCF gas)

If the total GDP growth rate is 7% or more, then 26 TCFadditional gas will be required which is calorific equivalent to1000 million tons of coal.

There will be a decline of gas production after 2011 anddemand of energy will be increasing

Coal may be the alternate source of energy in Bangladesh

Present installed capacity for power generation is ~5275 MW; 43% population has access to electricity. Percapita generation only 165 KWh per anum

There is a huge shortage of supply
