In dieser Angelegenheit

The Covid-19 has not only taken more than 33,000 lives and infected nearly 8 lakh people across the world, the pandemic has also hit the world economy very hard. Economic giants like China and USA are among the worst victims. Naturally small and medium economies who depend on the economic superpowers have also become victims due to the worldwide shutdown of transportation and shipments. In an import-dependent country like Bangladesh the crisis is inevitable and perhaps more severe. Apart from trade and economic activities, major development projects in the country have already been affected. Projects slowed down. Smooth implementation of almost all the major projects depends on foreign experts and technicians. Besides, the projects need import of machinery and equipment from abroad which is now very difficult. All the projects are now running behind schedule. Like other sectors, Bangladesh’s power and energy sector is also in danger and the future lies on which direction the situation would end up. Concerns and panic are there like everywhere. It is expected that the crisis would end soon.

Energy & Power Magazine Description:

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.
