A new horizon in the power sector of the country has started today with the transfer of uranium from the Rooppur nuclear power plant. At the same time, Bangladesh, the country of red and green, made its debut as the 33rd member country of the nuclear club.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">On Thursday, October 5, at 2 p.m., Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant&#8217;s fuel transfer certificate and model were awarded. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and Russian President Vladimir Putin are present virtually at the commissioning ceremony.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">Anand Utsav is going on at Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant on the occasion of the commissioning program. The event is going on in a huge pandal in the open field adjacent to the office in the project area.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">The Rooppur nuclear power plant has been seen on the surface, and pictures of the Prime Minister of Bangladesh and the President of Russia have been installed at various points of the power plant. Apart from this, along with the photo of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, various photos of the construction contract for Rooppur Power Station have been placed as memorials.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">The invited guests took their seats by 1.30 pm for the commissioning ceremony. Then Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and Russian President Vladimir Putin joined virtually at 2 p.m. Nuclear scientist and project director Dr. introduced the project at the beginning. Md. Shaukat Akbar<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">This was followed by a video showing the production of nuclear fuel and the handing over of the first batch at Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">The Secretary of the Ministry of Science and Technology gave a welcome speech at the beginning of the formal speech. Ali Hussain After that, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Mariano Grossi, spoke from a virtual connection. The main contractor of Rooppur Power Plant, Rosatom, and the Director General, Alexey Likhachev, spoke.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">The president&#8217;s speech was delivered by the Minister of Science and Technology, Architect Yafes Osman. After the minister&#8217;s speech, the certificate and model of transfer of nuclear fuel were awarded. On behalf of Russia, Director General of Rosatom Alexey Likhachev handed over the certificate and model to Yafes Osman. Then Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke. Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will speak at the end.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">Many believe that the Rooppur nuclear power plant will be able to take Bangladesh to unique heights. Not only joining the nuclear club, Rooppur will also be able to play a leading role in meeting the target of reducing carbon emissions while at the same time reducing the cost of power generation in a flash.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">Currently, there are 449 nuclear power plants in 30 countries around the world. The amount of electricity generated from them is about 12 percent of the total electricity generated. Another 65 nuclear power plants are under construction in 14 countries. By 2025, another 173 nuclear power plants will be in the process of being installed in 27 countries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">It is known that only one kg of uranium is capable of producing heat equal to about 100 tons of coal. To produce the same amount of heat by burning oil, 60 tons of diesel will be required.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">In this project, there was a hint of fear due to various global crises, including Corona, but in the end, Bangladesh was able to overcome everything. The dream project is progressing towards the desired goal. Most projects in Bangladesh have a bad track record of cost overruns. However, the eco-friendly power plant is going to set a unique precedent without increasing the cost of its original project.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">Earlier, after the nuclear power plant&#8217;s uranium reached the country on September 28, it was taken to Rooppur through tight security on September 29. 75 tons of uranium will be required to start the first unit (1200 MW) of this power plant. 18 months of uninterrupted power will be available after refueling once. After that, one-third of the uranium, i.e., 25 tons of nuclear waste, should be removed, and new uranium rods should be placed there. After that, it will continue for another 18 months. In this way, partial fuel should be changed every 18 months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Crime Desk: Bangladesh has written a new history.
