Feasibility of “Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant” & Its Contribution to the Future Energy Sector

Digital Bangladesh is one of the most challenging decisions made by the government to transform the country to be a middle-income country by 2021. That’s why the government implemented a large number of projects relating to digital technology. Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant (RNPP) project is one of them. In the recent past, the country faced an enormous electricity shortage with a great energy gap between peak demand and maximum energy generation. In Bangladesh, the present government promised to ensure the electricity to all the citizens by 2021. That’s why the world’s most lucrative Nuclear advanced technology is going on under Power Sector Master Plan (PSMP)-2016 (Vision 2041). In order to improve the security system of nuclear power, the bilateral project is not fully transparent for the public, which is understandable. That makes some political conflict with the anti-nuclear agenda. As a result, the general concerns are also involving in this project. Safety and Security systems by the world’s most advanced Water-Water Energy Reactor (VVER-1200) is in full discussion by this paper in order to get rid of local concerns. Countries Power Profile is completely described and focuses on the current National Planning to overcome the power shortage through the use of Nuclear Power. This paper mainly discusses the feasibility of RNPP in Bangladesh and how it will play a major role in the national energy sector in future to become the “DREAM COME TRUE” project for Bangladesh.
