Mollah, and 4 co-authors, reported in 2015 that a power crisis is one of the major problems in Bangladesh. At present, electricity production in Bangladesh is mostly based on the existing reserve of conventional energy sources as fossil fuel like gas, coal, oil etc. which is not sufficient to meet the present and near future power demand.
A comparative study between power generation form different energy sources and world energy consumption indicates that power generation from nuclear energy will facilitate to optimize energy mix and diversify country's energy source to get out of the chronic power shortage problem, sustaining the power development in Bangladesh. Considering the global trends to nuclear power, electricity generation from nuclear power plant could be the best option for Bangladesh to meet the growing demand and overcome energy and power crisis.
The authors concluded that electrical energy plays a vital role in the development of civilization. The advancement of a country is measured in terms of per capital consumption of electrical energy. Nuclear energy these days are safe, reliable and on the context of Bangladesh capable of reducing the gap between demand and production significantly.
The 3rd Generation Pressurized Water Reactors with automated and inâ€built safety features make nuclear energy a reliable source of massive electricity production. On the basis of present energy scenario of Bangladesh, nuclear energy based power production should be the best solution to the overall energy crisis as well as sustainable energy development [12].
