The sharp drop in India's solar electricity prices has raised concerns in neighboring Bangladesh, which now wants to import electricity
generated by Indian solar power projects.
A senior Bangladeshi government official told Indian media that Bangladesh is seeking to buy 2 GW of solar
energy from Indian projects.
Bangladesh has already purchased a lot of electricity
from India.
Almost all of India's electricity exports to Bangladesh come from coal-fired power plants
.
However, some new solar projects in India now cost less
than existing coal-fired power plants.
Bangladesh is also looking to develop large-scale renewable energy projects
.
The government announced plans to install 3,168 MW of renewable energy capacity in the country by 2021, with a focus on solar and wind power generation
.
According to the plan, Bangladesh will add 1,740 MW of solar and 1,370 MW of wind by 2021, with the rest mainly consisting of
biomass power generation technology.
Biogas and small hydropower projects will add less than 10 MW of electricity
each.
Bangladesh's power sector also announced annual growth targets
for renewable energy capacity.
Of the total capacity envisaged, one-third will be increased through state-owned companies, with the remainder installed by private companies
.
In addition to India, which has been a long-term partner in the power sector, Bangladesh also wants to strengthen power cooperation
with Bhutan and Nepal.
Bangladesh signed an agreement with Nepal to invest in hydropower projects
in Himalayan countries.
Part of the electricity generated by these power plants will be sent to Bangladesh
.
India has offered to import electricity from Nepal for re-export to Bangladesh
through a cross-border transmission system.
There is a similar agreement
with Bhutan.
