1,320 MW ultra-supercritical coal-fired power plant completed under China's BRI initiative aids Bangladesh's power sector.

China's BRI initiative contributes to Bangladesh's power sector development through a joint project with Bangladesh's North-West Power Generation Company. The 1,320 MW ultra-supercritical coal-fired power plant, located near Payra Port, was constructed against global challenges such as poor geological conditions, coal quality variations, and extreme wind speeds. This key project aims to address Bangladesh's previous power supply gap due to lack of mineral resources, insufficient power infrastructure, and high electricity demand.
