Bangladesh : Power System Expansion and Efficiency Improvement Investment Program - Tranche 2

Sovereign Project | 42378-016

The proposed Tranche 2 will contribute to the overall impact of the MFF on increased energy sector contribution to low-carbon economic growth in Bangladesh. The specific impact of the Tranche 2 will be increased access to reliable supply of electricity. The outcome of Tranche 2 is increased transmission and distribution capability in the power system. This will allow increased power transfer from Ghorasal to Tongi and to increased transmission capability to satisfy the increasing demand in Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet areas. Also the investments will allow improved distribution networks in the Dhaka region to supply increasing demand in the system to ensure no load-shedding due to network constraints by 2018.

Description The proposed Tranche 2 will contribute to the overall impact of the MFF on increased energy sector contribution to low-carbon economic growth in Bangladesh. The specific impact of the Tranche 2 will be increased access to reliable supply of electricity. The outcome of Tranche 2 is increased transmission and distribution capability in the power system. This will allow increased power transfer from Ghorasal to Tongi and to increased transmission capability to satisfy the increasing demand in Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet areas. Also the investments will allow improved distribution networks in the Dhaka region to supply increasing demand in the system to ensure no load-shedding due to network constraints by 2018.
Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy A framework financing agreement (FFA) for the Bangladesh Power System Expansion and Efficiency Improvement Investment Program (BPSEEIP, the facility ), has been signed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Government of Bangladesh (the Government) and ADB's Board of Directors approved this multi tranche financing facility (MFF) on 28 Nov 2012. This MFF funds power sector investments in generation, transmission and distribution systems in Bangladesh to improve efficiency in these systems and add capacity for increased and reliable energy access to the population. The MFF consisted of three tranches to undertake these investments in a staggered manner. The proposed tranche 2 meets the selection criteria set forth in the Schedule 4 of the FFA. It will undertake investments in transmission and distribution network strengthening. Thus the Tranche 2 helps achieving the outcome of the MFF, increased access to clean and reliable supply of electricity in Bangladesh.
Impact

Increased access to reliable supply of electricity

Project Outcome
Description of Outcome

Increased Transmission and Distribution capability in the power system

Progress Toward Outcome Transmission capacity has been increased by adding new substations and transmission lines under PGCB. Similarly, distribution network has been enhanced by adding new substations and new distribution line. Consumers number has been significantly improved with low transmission and distribution loss.
Implementation Progress
Description of Project Outputs

Summary of Environmental and Social Aspects
Environmental Aspects

An environmental assessment and review framework (EARF) for the MFF was prepared in September 2012 to ensure that project components in succeeding tranches comply with SPS 2009. Tranche 2 is classified as Category B according to SPS 2009 requiring an initial environmental examination (IEE). Following SPS 2009 and EARF, an IEE was prepared and was publicly disclosed to ADB website in August 2013.

No major environmental issue, nonetheless EA submits environmental monitoring reports semi-annually.

Sub-project selection for Tranche 2 was guided by the environmental criteria outlined in the EARF and Schedule 4 of the FFA. Components of Tranche 2 are not expected to cause significant adverse environmental impacts. Transmission line routes will traverse mainly agricultural lands and no forest, sanctuaries or protected areas will be affected. Environmental management plans have been prepared with adequate resources for implementation. PGCB, DPDC and DESCO will obtain all the required environmental clearances from the DOE prior to construction and copies submitted to ADB. A project brief in Bangla will be prepared by PGCB, DPDC, and DESCO and will be made available to the public at their field offices.

Involuntary Resettlement

The project is a Category A for its land acquisition impacts. There will be no impacts for the DESCO (C1-C2) or DPDC (B2-B3) components.

For construction of two substations; component A-2 under PGCB, 4.5 acres of land has been acquired. Three Resettlement Plans have been prepared and disclosed in the website in 2013. There has been 2 acres of land acquisition for the Shyampur 230/132 KV GIS and 2.5 acres of land acquisition for the Dhamrai 132/33 KV GIS. No land acquisition has been required for six kilo-meters transmission line. The affected people have been compensated for their loss of crops and trees as per ADB policy.

The semi-annual monitoring reports have been submitted by EA on a regular basis. So far, no grievances have been reported under the project.

Indigenous Peoples Tranche 2 is classified as category C in accordance with the ADBs Safeguard Policy Statement (2009). None of the subprojects would impact communities of indigenous populations or interfere with the territories of the indigenous populations or ethnic minorities, their livelihood systems, customary properties or their natural or cultural resources. However, if there are any unanticipated impacts on indigenous people during project implementation an indigenous peoples plan will be prepared and submitted to ADB for review. EAs will obtain the approval of such a plan before award of related civil works contract and implemented before commencement of the civil works of the relevant subproject, as applicable.
Stakeholder Communication, Participation, and Consultation
During Project Design During project preparation the project team along with the consultants have conducted stakeholder meetings while finalising the intial environmental examinations and resettlement plans for the respective components.
During Project Implementation During project implementation stakeholders consultation is being carried out as and will continue if required.
