Coal-fired plants to resolve power crisis
Energy experts said yesterday the government should immediately establish coal-fired power plants, even if it means that coal has to be imported, as it would take some time to extract local coal reserves to solve the power crisis in Dhaka. The experts spoke at a roundtable, organised by the Buet Alumni Association (BUETAA) and the daily Prothom Alo. They also suggested an increase in energy generation from different sources, such as renewable, biomass, hydro and installing nuclear power plants to solve the crisis.
