Bangladesh has taken up the world’s most efficient coal power plant to be set up at Matarbari. This project is one of the projects undertaken by the government. Ecnec approved financing of Tk35,984.46 crore to implement the project to increase electricity generation and meet the demand last week, which is annually growing at an average rate of 10%. Matarbari plant would be Bangladesh’s first plant to use sea surface water for cooling and steam generation. The Matarbari plant will be an Ultra Super Critical Technology, 42% more efficiency than the average 34% of other coal-based plants in Bangladesh. The government has undertaken a massive plan to set up high-capacity imported coal-based power plants to meet the demand through providing less expensive electricity. There will be two plants each having a generation capacity of 600MW. The entire project is scheduled to complete by June 2023. There would be emission of less carbon dioxide and pollution of environment during the implementation of the project.
