Rental Power to Bangladesh
55 MW of rental power provided by Aggreko will help to stabilise the energy grid in Bangladesh.
Aggreko plc, the global leader in the provision of temporary power and
temperature control services, has successfully designed, installed and
commissioned a 55 MW temporary power package in Khulna, Bangladesh, in
association with Infradev Associates. The project was one of six
temporary power contracts that had been awarded to various suppliers by
the Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDP). To date, Aggreko is the
only supplier to have successfully delivered the temporary power project, which has been installed at the Goal Para substation in Khulna.
The power package comprises over 50 containerised generators, along with
nine transformers, fuel tanks, switch gear, cable and ancillary items.
The voltage of the power package is 132 kV, which makes it the highest
voltage project Aggreko International has delivered to date. Equipment
for the project came from depots located in Singapore, the UAE and
Europe. It will be staffed and operated by a team of Aggreko
technicians, who will work to keep the plant operating 18 hours per day.
The power will be fed into the main utility grid in order to minimise
load-shedding during the summer months; a situation which has arisen due
to the increased development of industry in Bangladesh. Load-shedding
occurs when the power demand in an area is greater than the supply,
resulting in the utility company being forced to limit the supply of
energy by cutting off the power at certain times.
