Abstract
Bangladesh, a standout amongst the most crowded regions of Asia is at present experiencing Major energy emergency. Years of unconsciousness, absence of potential assets, labor, innovation and investment have taken the circumstance to an emergency level. Commercial energy consumption depends on natural gas (around 70%) trailed by coal, oil and hydropower. At present there is a huge difference between demand and generation of electricity. A step of building a nuclear power plant named Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant (RNPP) is taken by Government to fulfill this crying need. Bangladesh has planned to establish two Russian nuclear power reactors in operation (Rooppur-1 & Rooppur-2). The power plant will be built at Rooppur, 200 km north-west of Dhaka, at Paksey union on the bank of the Padma in the Ishwardi subdistrict of Pabna District, in the northwest of the nation. This paper discusses the prospect of green power generation using RNPP and evaluates different parameters whether it is a proper decision or not and also provides some necessary recommendations regarding the implementation of Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant.
