An electricity deal between Bangladesh, India and Nepal is a hopeful sign for tighter trade ties
The imbalance may soon start to be corrected. A trilateral deal between Bangladesh, India and Nepal, expected to be finalised in weeks, would see some of Nepal’s surplus electricity flow to power-starved Bangladesh via India’s transmission infrastructure, starting with a modest 50. Sceptics dismiss it as a rounding error in Bangladesh’s shortfall. At peak times demand exceeds supply by up to 25%, according to analysis by Reuters.
Having spent quite a lot of time in the dark, Bangladeshis are now reconsidering. The country’s natural-gas reserves, which account for two-thirds of its consumption, are dwindling and may be depleted within the decade, making it more dependent on imports of liquefied natural gas .
. Hydropower from its neighbours would help supply a stable baseline of renewable energy. The benefits of cleaner electricity ought to pay off in the short-term, too, in the form of more breathable air in the region’s cities, which are some of the world’s most polluted.
