Success in Generating and Distributing Electricity Power Throughout Bangladesh: A Overview of NESCO (Nothern Electricity Supply Company). American Journal of Energy Engineering. Vol. 11, No. 2, 2023, pp. 45-51. doi: 10.11648/j.ajee.20231102.12 Received: March 16, 2023; Accepted: April 17, 2023; Published: May 10, 2023 Abstract: Since electricity is a powerful tool for development, Bangladesh has succeeded in ensuring that energy is distributed properly throughout the country. Huge demand for electricity compelled the Bangladeshi government to increase production using coal and natural gas. With the assistance of five separate agencies that are interconnected to oversee the distribution and import of power, the Bangladeshi government has now provided electricity to all of Bangladesh. Northern Electricity Supply Co. Ltd. (NESCO), one of these five entities, is in charge of managing the electricity supply to Bangladesh's northern region. Rangpur and Rajshahi are including in these territory and these two areas include 16 districts. NESCO has contributed to the power generation and electricity sector of Bangladesh since 2016 and now is one reliable name of Norhern Bangladesh in case of electricity power generation and distribution. This paper will attempt to analyze the potential and significance of NESCO in power supply in Bangladesh, and how far it goes with earning profit. The findings supported the objectives with scrunizing the extracted data and also propose a future prospect of what to do next with NESCO. SPSS and MS excel are used for data analysis in this paper.

Because the expansion of industries and productivity are both correlated with power. In order to use information and communications technology in a digital world, power must be generated continuously [2]. By Presidential Order 59, Bangladesh Power Development Board and Bangladesh Water Development Board were formed on 31 May 1972 by dividing WAPDA (Water And Power Development Authority) in order to provide water and electricity supply and distribution to the citizens of Bangladesh. Bangladesh Power Development Board is a service-oriented public service organization under the Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral Resources. The main objective of this organization is to implement the plan adopted by the government for the development of socio- economic and human resources of the country through an uninterrupted and quality power supply. Also one of the responsibilities of the Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) is to formulate and implement a comprehensive plan to find an alternative or new sources of energy used for power generation in Bangladesh and to develop and ensure maximum utilization of power. BPDB is working to provide affordable electricity to all by 2021. BPDB has been responsible for the distribution of electricity in some rural areas including Chattagram, Cumilla, Mymensingh and Sylhet areas. At present BPDB is purchasing power from public and private power plants as a single buyer in addition to its power generation and selling power in DPDC, DESCO, WZPDCL, NESCO, REB and BPDB’s distribution areas. Considering the immense importance of electricity in the
