Bangladesh massively depends on India

[karan21]

got a source for your claim besides

You don't know where I got the figure??...the link in BOLD letters in my post would help.....sorry I can't make the link sparkle to make it catch your attention!

Well according to my research BD's total installed capcity is only 8000-9000MW out of which most plants are not functioning even at their 50% threshold. Maybe the rest comes from captive power plants and home generators. Anyways the numbers for BD are pathetic compared to even Pakistan.

So much fun ...

I do admit your work cited style might just work like a charm in India, but not in Pakistan Defence Forum, where a higher standard is expected.

I don't have all the time in the world to go through your not so impressive bulky source. A reference to the line, paragraph, and a page or URL would do wonders my friend !!!

2.Bangladesh consumes(or it did in 2009....it does more now) 23940 MW electricity(most of which it produces)(Bangladesh Electricity - consumption - Energy).........do you seriously think BD is going to shutdown without 500 MW??Yes India is the largest exporter of electricity to Bangladesh....but it would be foolish of anyone to think that BD 'massively depends' on India for its need.

@karan21 your figure about Bangladesh is right.

What Anubis is quoting, is the energy consumption figure of 23.94 Billion kWh energy, which he has wrongly converted to 23940 MW of power. He doesn't understand the difference between kW and kWh I guess.

The figure of 23.94 Billion kWh is 23940000000 kWh. Now if we assume the power is supplied 365 days x 24 hours= 8760 hours, for that we ll need,

23940000000 kWh/ 8760h = 2732876 kW= 2732 MW of power.

This was in 2009, mind you, things have improved under Sheikh Hasina's Awami league government . This figure is probably not the installed capacity as not all of the installed capacity is available for power generation and neither is electricity provided 24 x 7 through out the year, not in Bangladesh. If we take all this into account your estimate of 8000-9000MW of installed capacity is in the right ball park.

Your research is worth about a squat.

The source i gave you has contents which clearly mentions GENERATION AND CAPACITY ADDITION,you could have seen it in few minutes.

what truth ? we import couple of billions of dollar of product from India does not mean we only can import them from India . one of the reason why we import from India is India can provide the good in short period of time and relatively cheaply .

India is a good source for Raw materials and is very important for BD as we are industrializing rapidly. Look at Japan they collect Raw material from China Australia than add value to that and re export. Besides people does not like to do any low level work in BD anymore so we have to outsource them too like cow rearing etc.
