90pc electricity coverage by 2018

Go and build your first latrine.

Why.... 2-patents-a-year Bangladesh needs us to develop this for them as well?

YOu dont need a patent to build a latrine dumb ***. You just have to have the attitude and bit of shame to build it.

With Bangladesh IQ, you never know. Bangladesh brains seem to be lacking quite severely, why is that?

There is a major latrine building program going on in India right now (about 60% latrine access in 2015 and increasing by about 10 - 15% each year)....what will you move on to when that is completed?

You read too many fictions these days.

As I keep harping MOBILE TOILETS are a better option as villagers tend to use cemented toilets are turned into storage places. Cemented toilets deface the place and people make it either dirty and unusable. Our SBM intentions are made into tamasha by insincere local politicians and petty officials. I am glad that this article highlighted the problem areas.

What you guys store actually?

Its been investigated by the authorities and they have released a detailed survey as to how many people actually use the facilities they have access to (as part of a larger data collection on the program).

Overall its still a very high usage percentage. About 96% in rural and 99% in urban. (page 62 and 63)

After all with Bangladesh claiming full coverage we still have this happening:

Whatever you have to tell yourself.

There's a reason why Bangladesh statistics fall flat on many things.

Anyways you can believe whatever you want about both countries even against the evidence. No one stopping you.

Are all the thermal plants in Bdesh coal based or do you have any natural gas/oil based ones?

The newspaper I quoted mentions only about Coal shortage, however this is a list from Wikipedia. I have no further info.

Are you an stubborn idiot? Why are you bringing Indian dicck measuring in every thread. Who cares what Indian wind power produces. I would rather build a latrine first before producing a single MW of power. Thank you.

Indians and their insecurities!

Someone has already said it correctly, India is an elephant with the heart and brain of a mouse.

Their chronic jealousy can never allow them to rejoice achievements of neighboring countries.

Undermining neighbors by spreading cross-border terrorism by India in the neighborhood is just but one example.

Bangladesh is doing quite good economically and I hope they continue on this journey considering not very far in the past they were considered the poorest country.

Well done !

Now now - let's not paint everyone in India with a broad brush.

There are reasonable people in India too - just like everywhere else....

Completion of the first cross-border power interconnection between Bangladesh and India

Valve hall of the 500 MW back-to-back HVDC system

In March 2011 the Power Grid Company of Bangladesh Ltd. (PGCB) awarded Siemens the contract to connect the power supply networks between Bangladesh and India with a state-of-the-art 500 megawatt (MW) back-to-back high-voltage direct current (HVDC) system. This turnkey project included engineering, civil works and delivery of all components, installation and commissioning of the complete HVDC system. On December 4, 2013, the full transmission power capacity of 500 MW was achieved (enough power to light up about 180,000 homes). The system is capable of future expansion up to 1000 MW.

The first 175 megawatts of power flowed from India to Bangladesh in September 2013. This first electricity grid interconnection among SAARC countries with a 400 kV AC link between India and Bangladesh through a HVDC back-to-back station in Bangladesh was formally inaugurated by the Prime Ministers of both countries: Sheikh Hasina, Prime Minister, Bangladesh and Dr. Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister, India (via videoconference). The project was made possible under an India-Bangladesh power exchange program funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB).

Location of the HVDC station

This monopole back-to-back HVDC system links India's eastern electrical grid to Bangladesh's western grid. The HVDC station in Bangladesh is connected to the country’s existing 230 kilovolt (kV) grid. A new 400kV alternating current high-voltage overhead line provides the cross-border connection to the 400 kV substation in India. Use of HVDC transmission has enabled PGCB to continue the tradition of efficient electrical power transmission in Bangladesh.

India's state-run NTPC's power trading arms – VidyutVyapar Nigam Ltd and the Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) – signed a government-to-government electricity purchase agreement for 250 MW last year that allows Bangladesh to buy their urgently needed power at a competitive rate. For the remaining 250 MW, Bangladesh signed another power purchase agreement with PTC India Ltd. (formerly known as Power Trading Corporation of India Limited) in 2013.The HVDC station in Bangladesh has been identified as part of this agreement allowing a safe and reliable connection of the power grids of both countries.

This figure is good but we must me aware that a lot of rural households will not be on the grid but will have a single solar panel on the roof.

for the individual solar panel on roof you mentioned in Bangladesh, is it used to heat the water only? Or be used to generate electricity? Any details to share? Many thanks.

It's used to generate electricity for household consumption.
