A bottom-up financial model of power generation in Bangladesh

This note describes a financial model of the power sector in Bangladesh developed by the World Bank to assess the impact of different policy interventions on sector finances. The model was built from the bottom up, on the base provided by the planning model used by the Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB). It is hoped that making this model available will allow the government and development partners to have a common framework for analysis and develop a common understanding of what needs to be done to assure the sustainability of the sector.
