Siddhirganj 240 MW plant to be ready in summer

The 240MW Siddhirganj peaking power plant is likely to go into operation from next summer as its installation works are going on in full swing.
Electricity Generation Company of Bangladesh (EGCB), a newly established state-owned public limited company (PLC), is implementing the project to feed the power-hungry capital and its adjoining areas to offset load shedding.
According to official sources, the plant will have two generation units, each having production capacity of 120 MW. The second unit has already been installed at the site while the first unit is under process of installation.
They said the gas turbine of the first unit met with an accident while it was being transported to ship from the GE's manufacturing plant in Hyderabad of India.
Following the incident, plant contractors Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) returned the gas turbine to the manufacturing plant for thorough inspection.
The EGCB asked the BHEL to engage the world famous UK-based Lloyd's Register as a third party inspector to conduct the inspection.
The officials said the Lloyds already conducted its inspection and issued an acceptance certificate on October 15, 2008.
Sources said the Asian Development Bank (ADB) is funding the project as part of its financial assistance programme for Bangladesh power sector.
