In this issue

Being a licensee of Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC), Gas Transmission Company Limited (GTCL) must get necessary approval from the regulator. But in most cases, it has not happened. The bureaucrat-dominated company has to implement transmission pipeline expansion projects based on the government’s decisions. The GTCL has already made huge investment, but is not getting expected return due to lack of adequate supply of gas. GTCL is also a commercial organization. It has to stay in business by recovering the investment with return. The company management cannot be blamed for any of the investment.

Instead of GTCL making these project proposals, the EMRD or Petrobangla had dictated the decisions. At the same time, flawed exploration policies by Petrobangla failed to enhance gas production since 2010. LNG imports could not also be increased to a level as planned. As a result, some new transmission pipelines were being operated at much lower capacity. So, the GTCL is not getting the wheeling charge as expected and gradually getting sick.

Any investment in this regard should be made based on well-analyzed forecast about the gas supply situation in the country.

FrequencyFortnightly

Energy & Power (EP) is the first and only full-fledged fortnightly magazine that deals with the much cried over energy and power sector in Bangladesh. Since its inception in June 16, 2003, EP is working very hard to 
a) Develop public consciousness on sustainable and even development of energy sector; 
b) Assist the policy makers in assuming pragmatic policies for a balanced development of the energy sector; 
c) Continuous supply of information among public; and 
d) Develop a group of reporters in this field 

Bangladesh is an energy deficit country like other countries in the region and most of the people do not have adequate access to the energy and power. The country is completely dependent on fossil energy source; at the same time, it is one of the most inefficient energy using countries in the world. 
It lacks efficiency in planning, management, generation, distribution, load management and even at the end user level consumption. 
In spite of the above drawbacks, issues relating to utilization of renewable energy, exploring alternative use of energy, planned use of environment friendly energy are significantly undermined in Bangladesh. 
The biggest challenge of Bangladesh is to find a path for balanced growth of its energy sector. Despite its resource constraints, EP dynamically strives to provide theenergy sector with a flow of information and create public awareness; so that policymakers get guidelines and platforms for its sustainable development.

Code of Ethics 
EP believes that public enlightenment is the forerunner of justice and the foundation of democracy. The duty of a journalist is to further those ends by seeking truth and providing a fair and comprehensive account of events and issues and professional integrity is the cornerstone of a journalist's credibility. We strive to serve the public with thoroughness and honesty.

The EP editorial policy is to share a dedication to ethical behavior and uphold the zero conflict of interest principles and highest standards of practice. 

EP believes in 
o Seeking truth and reporting the same 
o Minimize harm
