Bangladesh

Bangladesh’s interim government has already scrapped several Petrobangla LNG deals, sources told Gas Outlook.

Bangladesh’s over-reliance on fossil fuel imports will escalate further if dozens of renewable project PPAs are not signed quickly with the BPDB, sources say.

Major changes made by Bangladesh’s new interim government have put at risk several multi-billion dollar energy deals and projects that were in the pipeline.

Since late May when Cyclone Remal hit, some of Bangladesh’s key LNG facilities have been out of operation.

India is set to become the first country in the world to export LNG in re-gasified form through cross-country pipelines as GAIL and H-Energy close in on Bangladesh supply deals.

Bangladesh recently generated its record highest volume of electricity and re-gasified maximum LNG to meet sweltering temperature demands during heatwaves.
