Summit Group Urges Government of Bangladesh to Reverse
Singapore, 9 October 2024 – Summit LNG Terminal II Co Ltd (“SLNG II”), a unit of Summit Group, has urged the Government of Bangladesh to reverse its decision to terminate the third Floating
Concluded in May 2023, the assignment assessed available energy storage technologies, evaluated the role of energy storage in the current grid conditions, identified potential storage locations, analysed energy storage requirements under variable renewable energy (VRE) integration, and developed a roadmap for energy storage in Bangladesh.
Limited experience and knowledge of grid connected energy storage in Bangla-desh. Early-stage pilot programmes such as the planned 2MW grid connected BESS funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) would further support capacity building and knowledge transfer. 3.3.
The roadmap highlights specific use-cases for consideration in the Bangladesh power sector over three different future time horizons. It also includes a summary of indicative policy and regulation actions and interventions that may be considered to enable the deployment of energy storage within the defined time horizons.
The power sector continues to support the ongoing electrifica-tion of transport in Bangla-desh, through various initia-tives undertaken by distribu-tion companies and the roll-out of an EV charging tariff.
There are no service obliga-tions for distribution compa-nies to provide electricity solu-tions for displaced communi-ties in Bangladesh. Distribution companies and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) (in the absence of ser-vice area obligations) would be key institutional stakeholders for the deployment of this applica-tion.
Various power sector agencies including Bangladesh Rural Electrification Board (BREB) and West Zone Power Distribution Company Limited (WZPDCL) have already deployed EV charging stations, as have various private investors (including SolShare).
