Magazine Description
In this issue
The possibility of having a regional platform for the power trade among the four nations – Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Bhutan -- is taking shape as officials of Bangladesh and India are meeting this month to discuss the issue. The four-nation virtual power grid would be developed based on the India-Bangladesh-India cross-country grid and it would be a big leap forward ultimately in establishing a dream SAARC grid. The issue was raised at the SAARC forum on different occasions, but India always insisted about bilateral negotiations on cross-border power trade. The donor-driven initiatives for last two decades did not see success, as a result. But India with having huge energy demand did not remain seated idle -- they started power trade with Nepal and Bhutan. Bangladesh is now importing power from India and planning to import more in future. Experts say power import from neighboring countries would play a significant role in Bangladesh’s future energy mix. The government is considering all the prospects for energy import. Bangladesh must protect its interest in the negotiations before starting work on cross-border power trade. It is expected that the government would do the negotiations skillfully.
