 Plan for Renewable Energy

 In order to decrease dependency on fossil

fuel and reduce pollution, Government of
Bangladesh has adopted “Renewable
Energy Policy-2008”

 At least 10% electricity generation from

renewable sources, by 2030.

 In line with this policy, NWPGCL signed an

Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with
China National Machinery Import & Export
Corporation (CMC) on 27-Aug-2019.

 The total capacity of these Solar and/or

wind based power plants would be up to
500 MW approximately.

 A Proven Friendship…

 CMC is a trusted partner of NWPGCL and

successfully implemented JVC company
together.

 The friendship between two countries and

previous success with CMC have added
vigor to this partnership for BCPCL
Renewable.

The Hon’ble Prime Minister of the Government of Bangladesh

and The Hon’ble Prime Minister of the People’s Republic of
China added vigor to the Bangladesh-China friendship.
Thank You!
