Market survey for nuclear power in developing countries. Bangladesh

Abstract

Fourteen Country Reports, one for each of the developing countries that took part in the Survey, have been prepared. These fourteen Country Reports are summarized in the General Report. Sections 1-8 of each Report contain data gathered during the visit of the team of experts and other data gathered for general accuracy. Sections 9-17 present the method of approach, the data used in the analyses, the analyses made and the results of the studies. General data and methodology common to the studies for all countries are given in the Appendixes. Section 1 concerns general economics and contains data on population, gross national product, mineral resources and energy consumption. Data on the national energy resources such as hydro potential, fossil fuel reserves, refinery capacity and production, and nuclear materials resources are given in Section 2. The electricity supply system, its development, generating and transmission facilities, costs of existing plants and plants under construction, various system operating and economic criteria, and technical data on existing generating units are given in Section 3. The historical growth of the electrical demand is described in Section 4, together with historical data on per-capita consumption, installed capacity, energy generated, load factor, and system load characteristics.

General data and methodology common to the studies for all countries are given in the Appendixes. Section 1 concerns general economics and contains data on population, gross national product, mineral resources and energy consumption. Data on the national energy resources such as hydro potential, fossil fuel reserves, refinery capacity and production, and nuclear materials resources are given in Section 2. The electricity supply system, its development, generating and transmission facilities, costs of existing plants and plants under construction, various system operating and economic criteria, and technical data on existing generating units are given in Section 3. The historical growth of the electrical demand is described in Section 4, together with historical data on per-capita consumption, installed capacity, energy generated, load factor, and system load characteristics. Data are also given on system reliability, reliability criteria, and outage experience. The future system requirements are described in Section 5 including projections of maximum demand, generated energy, load factor and future reserve capacity. Also included are data on generating units and transmission facilities planned, under construction or projected, and on future sites. Section 6 contains data on local material and labour costs, labour practices, and the participation of local industry in the manufacture of power system components. Economic and financial aspects such as the method of evaluating the economic merit of projects, sources of funds, import duties and restrictions are described in Section 7. Section 8 contains a description of the administration and regulation practices of the Agencies responsible for nuclear power and information on nuclear legislation, licensing and safety. Section 9 describes the analytical approach used in the study; the bases of analysis, the computer programs, and the economic and technical methodology and parameters. The approach taken to determine the sensitivity of the results to certain parametric changes is also described. In Section 10 are described the bases of the load forecasts used in the study, the future load characteristics such as seasonal peak demand, the load duration data, and the load factor. The results of the analysis of the factors limiting system development, made by Associated Nuclear Services, are given in Section 11, including data on system reliability, response of the system to loss-of-load, and recommendations on limits of generating unit sizes. The existing and committed electrical power system technical data, such as unit capacity, heat rates, fuel costs, forced and scheduled outage rates, seasonal and energy factors relating to hydro, and data on emergency hydro and pumped storage are given in Section 12. Capital cost data and the bases for their calculation are given in Section 13. The technical characteristics of the alternative generating units considered for the expansion of the power system are given in Section 14. The analyses of the alternative expansion programs are described in Section 15, including a discussion of the alternative plans considered, the method of determining the 'optimum' expansion program and the consideration given to system reliability. The results of the study for the reference conditions and the sensitivity of these results to various parameters are given in Section 16. These results include the overall thermal plant additions required during the study period, the nuclear units required,and the financial requirements of the reference case expansion plan. The summary and conclusions of the study are present ed in Section 17. A number of Appendixes have been included to provide additional information on the computer programs, methods of forecasting load, methodology and parameters used, fossil and nuclear fuel costs, general technical and economic data on thermal and nuclear plants, and other appropriate data.}
