In a statement posted on his verified Facebook page, the adviser stated, “The electricity generated from Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant will be possible to supply to the national grid in December this year. The construction of the 2,400 MW nuclear power plant in Rooppur is progressing rapidly.”
Providing updates on recent developments in energy sector, Mahmud also announced that the government has repealed the Quick Enhancement of Electricity and Energy Supply (Special Provisions) Act 2010.
