This mine has a capacity to
produce about 1 million tons of
coal per year. The mine started
partial production from 14th
April 2002.Commercial
production under a Management,
Production and Maintenances
Services (M&P) Contract
commenced on 10th September
2005. Under the Contract M&P,
the total production of coal was
5,71,706.720 metric tons up to
April 2011 in the fiscal year
2010-11. 65% of
the production will be used in a
250 MW coal fired power station
and rest 35% to other domestic
consumers

The mine has the capacity to produce about
1.65 million tons of hard rock per year.
It's trial production started in 1998 and
finally commercial production started on
25th May, 2007. Granite mine during
development phase are finding good
market. During the mine development
period, 4,59,506 metric ton granite was
produced from which 3,93,050 metric ton
have been sold and during the fiscal year
2010-11 and up to April 2011,the
company had produced 2,19,390.400
metric ton of granite. The granite produced
is expected to be used mostly as
construction material and will substitute
import. As a diversification, MGMCL is also
studying the market potential and technoeconomical feasibility of producing tiles
from the colorful granite blocks, as a
replacement of equivalent imported tiles.

It is the one and only dam of
Bangladesh that is used to generate
hydro-electric power. This plant
was constructed in 1962 as part of
the 'Karnafuli Multipurpose Project',
and is one of the biggest water
resources development project of
Bangladesh. The water storage
capacity of the Kaptai dam is 11000
km2. In 1962, the the dam,
spillway, penstock and two units of
powerhouses were built. Each of
the powerhouses was capable of
generating 40MW of electricity. In
November 1981 another 50MW
generating unit was completed. In
October 1988, the 4th and 5th
generating units were installed
which raised the total generation
capacity to 230MW.

Indicator 1: Per Capita Carbon Emissions
Table 1 presents a snapshot view of the primary energy consumption in 2004. As can be
seen, even at the beginning of the 21st century, biomass still provides nearly half of the
total energy. Less than 35% households have electricity connection, and only 4%
households have natural gas supply. Renewable energy (other than biomass and hydro)
constitutes a very small percentage of the total energy consumption. This excludes the
use of sunlight for various drying operations by. Present capacity stands at
approximately 3 MW with nearly 60,000 installed units. The total installed wind capacity
is less than 1 MW. Biogas and improved cook-stoves programs have had little success in
the last 25 years.

Indicator 2: Households with Access to Electricity
Table 2 summarizes the status of rural electrification in Bangladesh, while Table 3 gives
the achievement of the electrification program. Experts maintain that given the
inaccessibility of many places, 100% coverage is not economically feasible and that a
more realistic figure is 80%. Less than 50% of the households in electrified villages will
be able to enjoy the fruits of the government’s electrification program. The total
available generation capacity is approximately 4000 MW23 although the dependable
generation capacity is much lower. The peak load on certain heavy demand days
exceeds 5000 MW.

Indicator 3: Resilience to External Impacts: Energy Trade
In 2002, the government started a CNG program, but limited it to the
conversion of gasoline vehicles. While a large number of CNG buses have
been imported, the major portion of the transport sector is still dependent
on imported oil. Since 1990, the oil demand has registered a steady growth
of 7% per year. In the last two years, the growth rate has declined to 5% per
year. The importation of oil using scarce foreign currency has always been a
big issue in Bangladesh. Even though the oil import bill is a small portion of
the GDP (Table 4) at the high price of US$ 50/bbl., it is the scarcity of foreign
currency that is of major concern. The oil import bill is a significant portion
of the exports and has jumped from being 5-6% of the total imports just a
few years ago to over 12% in 2004 and was expected to reach 15% in 2005.

Indicator 4: Clean Energy Investment
With regards to renewable energy, the government’s only role has
been to cooperate with bilateral/multilateral organizations. Most of
these cooperative ventures have been the implementation of grants
for pilot studies on renewable energy. The most significant is the
construction of a 1 MW wind generator at a cost of US$ 1.25 million.
In the last two years, mainly through the efforts of NGOs such as
Grameen Shakti, some success has been achieved in clean energy
investment.

Indicator 5: Energy Intensity
Bangladesh’s per capita commercial energy consumption is one of the lowest
in the world, and is only one-third that of its neighbours, India and Pakistan.
Table 5 gives a snapshot view of the economic and energy data of
Bangladesh along with the energy intensity for the years 1990 and 2004. A
slight decrease in the energy intensity can be observed. This is a good sign,
but a serious shortage of electricity prevails in the country.

Indicator 6: Renewable Energy Deployment
At present the capacity stands at approximately 3 MW with nearly 60,000 installed units.
The total installed wind capacity is less than 1 MW, and the biogas and improved Lookstoves programs have had little success in the last 25 years following the recent
successes, the Infrastructure Development Company Limited (IDCOL) will bring a total of
140,000 rural households under the solar power system by 2009. Initially IDCOL had a
target of financing 50,000 SHSs in a five and half year period from January 2003 to June
2008 with financial assistance from the World Bank and Global Environment facility
(GEF). This target was successfully achieved by September 2005, three years ahead of
schedule. IDCOL’s solar electrification program is mainly being implemented in remote
areas
Far from the existing grid at a total cost of 35 million USD. Table 6 shows the data.

In National Energy Policy (NEP) in the year 2008 (covering Renewable
Energy):
The major objectives of the NEP are:
To provide energy for sustainable economic growth so that the
economic development activities of different sectors are not constrained
due to shortage of energy.
To meet the energy needs of different zones of the country and of
different Socio-economic groups.
To ensure optimum development of all the indigenous energy sources
(e.g. Commercial fuels, biomass fuels, and other renewable energy
sources).
To ensure sustainable operation of the energy utilities.
To ensure rational use of total energy sources.
To ensure environmentally sound sustainable energy development
programs Causing minimum damage to environment.
To encourage public and private sector participation in the
development and Management of the energy sector.
