Damodar Valley Corporation keen to sell power to Bangladesh

Kolkata . "We are looking to sell at least 500MW to Bangladesh. Our team gave this proposal to Bangladesh during a recent visit to Dhaka," said a top DVC official. 
 
DVC's current surplus stands at 1200MW . A new DVC unit with an installed capacity of 500 MW at Bokaro in Madhya Pradesh will soon get commissioned as well. 
 
In 2013, when Bangladesh first expressed intent to import power from India, DVC was not in the fray. The National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) and the West Bengal Power Development Corporation (WBPDC) did the bidding.
