dc.description.abstract Electricity has been the foundation of economic growth of a country, and constitutes one of the vital infra-structural inputs in socio- economic development. Bangladesh's energy infrastructure is quite small, insufficient and poorly managed. The per capita energy consumption in Bangladesh is one of the lowest (136 kWH) in the world. Bangladesh's installed electric generation capacity was 4.7 GW in 2009; three-fourth of which is considered to be available. 40% of the population has access to electricity with a per capita availability of 136 kWh per annum. The Ministry of Power and Energy has been mobilizing Tk 40,000 crore ($5.88 billion) to generate 5,000 MW of electricity to reduce load shading into a tolerable level within next four and half years during the term of the present government. By arranging carefully understand the role of power sector in Bangladesh the general electricity production, distribution and transmission system in the country must also be taken into account. All these have been rightfully done in this report. The purpose of this report is to establish a brief description of electricity production, distribution and transmission system in Bangladesh. By following the collected data from APSCL (Ashuganj Power Station Company Ltd), APSCL has 9 units with installed capacity of 777MW. But its present de rated capacity is 677MW. Ashuganj Power Station fulfills about 15% of power requirements of the country. Unit 1&2 produce 64 MW each. Unit 3, 4&5 produce 150 MW each, unit 6&7 produce 56 MW each and unit 8 produce 34 MW. This is all about the power generation of APSCL. Through our internship we have come to know how a power station runs and also know the practical field of power generation, distribution and transmission. On the completion of our internship we can relate theoritical knowledge with practical experience. en_US
