Considering the fuel diversification issue, the Power
System Master Plan-2010 aims to acquire the fuel mix as
follows:
• Coal 50% (30% domestic coal and 20% imported
coal),
•Natural gas 25% (including LNG),
• Liquid fuel 5% and
•Nuclear 20% (including renewable and cross-border
trade)

National Energy Policy, 1996: Nuclear energy was
considered as a energy supply source of generation-mix
approved by the Govt.
Bangladesh Nuclear Power Action Plan (BANPAP) was
approved by the Govt. in 2000
Nuclear power has been included in the Power System
Master Plan (PSMP)-2010
Government’s Commitment for NPP

10. Nuclear Energy Planning

A decision for implementation of the Rooppur NPP was
approved by the parliament in 2010;
•Perspective Plan of Bangladesh: 2010–
2021 and PSMP- 2010 outlined:
Medium
range
plan
•Construction of 2000 MW Rooppur
NPP by 2021;
•Additional 2000 MW by 2030;
Capacity

Nuclear Energy System Collaboration Strategy
Inter-governmental Agreement (IGA)between Russia
and Bangladesh in 2011 for installation of 2x1000 MWe
VVER

•Designing
•Construction
•Operation
•Spent Fuel Management
Co-operation in the following areas:

12. Fuel Cycle
No activities associated with nuclear fuel
cycle that are not under the IAEA safeguards
Nuclear fuel in the form of ready fuel
assemblies
Front-end fuel cycle
Returning the nuclear spent fuel to the
supplier

Implementation of NPP Project
•The “Bangladesh Atomic Energy Regulatory Act-2012”
passed by the government;
•An independent nuclear regulatory authority was
established
• An bilateral Agreement on cooperation in nuclear and
radiation safety was signed in February 2012 between
the Nuclear Regulatory Authority, Russian Federation
and the MOST, Bangladesh;
•Nuclear Power Plant Act 2015 was passed by
government and NPP operating organization is
established
Nuclear Power Plant Company Bangladesh Limited
(NPCBL) was established

14. The preparatory phase of construction activities of the
first NPP, “Rooppur NPP” has already been started;
Development of the second NPP project at the
Southern Part of the country is in active consideration
of the government.
Implementation of NPP Project

◦Contract I : Feasibility Evaluation and EIA
◦Contract 2 : First priority working documentation and
engineering survey for the design stage of
Rooppur NPP
◦Contract 3 : Performance of first priority Works for the
Preparatory stage of Rooppur NPP
construction.
