The Government numbers 90 billion (9000 crore) in subsidies for the parent State power Entität-must to TK-Bangladesh of power Development Board (BPDB) - in the current fiscal year (FY) 2011 - 12 electricity mainly from expensive oil-based rental and quick rent plants to buy, a top official said Friday.
The aid may next year, when diesel and furnace is most oil-fired power plants, pump, continue to rise, the official said.
"We need a lot of subsidy amounting to about 90 billion TK in the current FY only when the existing energy tariff is not raised," said BPDB, commonly known as PDB, Chairman ASM Alamgir Kabir the vu.
The amount of the subsidy, which for the current FY required is in the previous year TK 45 billion.
Officials said that the Government into a ' subsidy case ' to do expensive diesel and furnace oil-fired power plants has fallen already.
Expensive rent and fast rent, the power plants now approx. 1,700 megawatts (MW) of electricity, produce the 34 percent of the country is aggregate electricity of around 5, 000mw.
14. October 2011 the Government signed 45 offers with different sponsors a total of 47 power plant projects, most of them will create oil-based.
Twenty seven rent and quick rent, that already, while about a dozen more power plants will have taken expected to end of the year start generation by the operation.
Seven quick rent plants with an aggregate production capacity of the 522mw have started electricity, electricity supply the national grid and the remaining 20 with capacity of 1 173mw for rent are.
The rental and fast rental power plants fired diesel or run on oil furnace.
The term of the rental and quick rent plants is different contracts for the equipment for the production of electricity for 3 to 15 years has awarded from one to the other the Government.
Some rent and rent quick power stations have three-year term, which means that it will be closed after three years of electricity.
More rent and quick rent power plants five-year term, and some have up to 15 years term.
Many rent and fast rental power plants were or are, under the rapid supply of power and energy (special provision) Act 2010, quick implementation of energy projects.
The law expands 'Immunity' to the staff, the implementation of projects in the areas of sector involved in energy.
The new rule allowed the Government directly with sponsors of the rental and quick rent plants and award contracts, bypassing the tender, to negotiate.
It has helped the new entry entre initiate Preneurs companies in the energy sector, without any previous experience.
But the Government is to much dependence on expensive diesel and furnace oil-fired power plants to increase power generation create pressure on the public undertakings concerned.
With the opening of the expensive rent and BPDB fast rent power plants, has tried, increase the bulk electricity price the amount of the subsidy to 12 percent of all six months or at an annualized rate of more than 25 percent for years, until the year 2013, and to buy to pay against the current of the power station sponsors.
Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) grew makes tariff of 11 percent for large consumers and 5.0 per cent for end users by 1 February 2011.
Makes bulk rate grew further to 6.66% from 1 August 2011, which means that makes a total hike at the rate for bulk-buying customers is now 18.14. % higher than the pre-February 2011.
The average mass rate of electricity to TK 2.80 per unit of the previous TK 2.37 per unit increased after the walk.
But the BPDB has electricity on TK 13 TK was 14 per unit of the diesel fired rental and quick rent plants and TK 7.0-TK 8.0 per unit of furnace oil-fired power plants.
In terms of the load of the Assembly BPDB has produced again, a tariff hike proposal BERC to 5 October 2011.
The energy regulatory Commission accepted the proposal and is to rate makes again shortly after a public hearing, the simple installation subsidy burden on the public Treasury for the BPDB need some can help.
