“The Khulna project for Shanghai Electric Group is an important step that continues Saft’s growth within China’s industrial standby sector as well as maintaining our already strong position in the international power plant market,” says Xavier Delacroix, General Manager of Saft’s Industrial Battery Group Division. This states that in 2030 Bangladesh’s power demand will be around 34,000 MW while the generation capacity will be about 39,000 MW.Įach large battery for the Khulna project will comprise 175 Saft SBLE700 cells with a nominal capacity of 700 Ah to provide autonomous power if the main plant power supply is interrupted. However as part of its objective of ‘electricity for all’ the government has prepared its Power System Master Plan 2010 (PSMP). Presently, 68 percent of the country’s population has access to electricity and per capita generation is 348 kWh (including renewable energy), which is very low compared to other developing countries. The country’s total installed generation capacity is currently 10,600 MW. The Saft SBLE batteries will provide backup power to ensure the continuous, uninterrupted operation of critical safety and control systems at the Khulna 225 MW Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCCP) expansion project, 159 km from the capital, Dacca.īangladesh, with a population of 152 million is enjoying booming economic growth, rapid urbanisation and increased industrialisation and development that has increased the country's demand for electricity. Saft, the world’s leading designer and manufacturer of high-tech industrial batteries, is supplying two large battery systems to Shanghai Electric Group Company Limited, one of China’s largest equipment manufacturing conglomerates, for a high profile power plant expansion project in Khulna, Bangladesh’s third largest city. Khulna in south east Bangladesh is the country’s third largest city with a population of 1.4 million.Saft’s SBLE nickel-based batteries will provide backup power for critical safety and control systems at the Khulna 225 megawatt (MW) Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCCP) project.
