Energieeffizienz in der netzgebundenen Stromversorgung (Komponente Länderquote) Energy Efficiency in the grid-based Power Supply Die vorgesehenen Einzelmaßnahmen beinhalten nach aktuellem Planungsstand den Neubau inkl. Netzanbindung von bis zu elf Umspannstationen auf 230/132 kV bzw. 132/33 kV Ebene, Umbau und Aufrüstung von weiteren Umspannstationen, sowie Bau und Aufrüstung von insgesamt 200 km Übertragungsleitungen (230 kV und 132 kV) im gesamten Land. Träger des Vorhabens ist der staatliche Netzbetreiber Power Grid Company of Bangladesh (PGCB), der außerhalb von Dhaka für Management und Betrieb des bangladeschischen Stromübertragungsnetzes zuständig ist. Mit PGCB wurden in der Vergangenheit bereits mehrere FZ-Vorhaben erfolgreich durchgeführt. Zur Zielgruppe des Vorhabens gehört die Gesamtheit der durch das öffentliche Stromnetz versorgten Verbraucher. Dazu gehören Unternehmen, private Haushalte und öf-fentliche Einrichtungen, die von einer höheren Versorgung und erhöhter Netzstabilität profitieren. The project complements the already ongoing FC project Improvement of Power Transmission in the West Zone (BMZ-No. 2012 66 436). It aims at supporting a reliable and efficient energy supply in Bangladesh and will therefore contribute to economic development, an improvement of living conditions as well as a climate and environmental friendly energy sector in Bangladesh. By extending the capacities of the transmission grid, the reliability shall be strengthened also in the light of growing demand. Technical losses and voltage fluctuations will be reduced and the availability of the transmission grid will be enhanced. The reduction of technical losses is directly connected to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from thermal power plants. Power Grid Company of Bangladesh (PGCB) is acting as Project Executing Agency for the FC project.The project enlarges the German FC support in the transmission sector in Bangladesh. It comprises the new construction and the enhancement of different transmission lines (230 and 132 kV) as well as of a number of sub-stations (230/132 kV and 132/33 kV) in the high voltage transmission grid of PGCB. The proposed measures form part of the National Grid Enlargement Plan and have been prioritized in the feasibility study by the Consultant Gopa Intec in cooperation with the Project Executing Agency PGCB. An accompanying measure to strengthen PGCB in its institutional capacity forms additional part of the German FC support. The target group comprises the consumers connected by the national grid. These include private sector enterprises, private households and public institutions, all benefitting from higher grid stability and enhanced reliability of energy supply.The total project costs comprise EUR 187.9 million. The costs will be financed by a German FC Development Loan of EUR 137.5 million, EUR 48.4 will be contributed by the Bangladesh side. EUR 2.0 million for the accompanying measure complement the financing package. Das Vorhaben soll - auch bei steigender Nachfrage - zu einer ausreichenden, zuverlässigen und effizienten Energieversorgung in Bangladesch beitragen. Dadurch soll ökonomisch nachhaltiges Wachstum unterstützt, eine Verbesserung der Lebens- und Arbeitsbedingungen in Bangladesch ermöglicht, sowie zur Klima- und Umweltverträglichkeit des Energiesektors beigetragen werden.
