The third unit of the 275-megawatt Barapukuria coal-based thermal power plant has started generating electricity. Since 7 PM on July 30, the unit has been supplying 150-160 megawatts to the national grid. The plant’s Chief Engineer, Md. Abu Bakkar Siddique, confirmed that the unit resumed operation after being shut down on July 21 due to a surveyor error. This restart is expected to help stabilize power supply and support the national grid’s demand.
