Bangladesh Seeks More Electricity from Tripura

12 Nov 2024 CW Team

Bangladesh has expressed interest in receiving more electricity from the Indian state of Tripura, currently supplying 50-80 MW daily, to meet its growing energy demands. Tripura has been a key supplier of power to Bangladesh since 2013, with cross-border electricity trading aimed at bolstering the energy security of both nations.

Bangladesh's growing demand for electricity, driven by expanding industrialization and economic development, has led to the country's request for an increased power supply. The state-run Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) has sought an additional 100 MW from Tripura, which is seen as crucial to sustaining its energy needs. Currently, the electricity exported to Bangladesh is transmitted through the 132-kV grid line from Tripura’s power plants, and discussions are underway to enhance the capacity of this infrastructure.

The Tripura government has responded positively, with plans to upgrade existing power plants and infrastructure to accommodate the increased demand. Local officials from both sides are actively engaging in talks to streamline the logistics, regulatory frameworks, and technical aspects of the expanded electricity trading.

The decision to increase the power supply reflects the strengthening of energy ties between India and Bangladesh, which is an essential part of their broader bilateral cooperation. Power sharing not only supports Bangladesh’s economic development but also enhances regional connectivity and collaboration on energy security.
