Dhaka Electric Supply Company Limited (DESCO) is a public limited company which distributes electricity at the northern parts of Dhaka City and Tongi Town of Gazipur District. The company was created in November 1996 under the Companies Act 1994 as a Public Limited Company.
The power generation and distribution system of Dhaka was managed by BPDB until 1991. An autonomous organisation named Dhaka Electric Supply Authority (DESA) was created by an ordinance promulgated by the President in March 1990 to improve services to the consumers and to enhance revenue collection by reducing the prevailing high system loss.
Tradition goes that the Nawab of Dhaka introduced electricity in Dhaka in 1901 when he installed a small generator in his residence Ahsan Manzil. Power generation for public use started in 1930 when a privately owned company M/S DEVCO developed an electricity distribution system.

Kyiv wants to up this to 27% by 2030. Other similar energy storage systems in Eastern Europe include Lithuanian electricity transmission system operator Litgrid's 200-MW units launched in 2023 and a 55-MW battery energy storage system in Razlog in southwestern Bulgaria that went online in 2024.
REUTERS/Valentyn Ogirenko/File photo Purchase Licensing Rights KYIV, Sept 11 (Reuters) - Ukrainian private energy firm DTEK has launched the country's largest battery storage facility to ensure stable power supplies in the face of Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy sector, the company said on Thursday.
The Kyiv Pumped-Storage Power Plant ( Ukrainian: Ки́ївська гідроакумулювальна електростанція) is a pumped-storage power station on the west bank of the Kyiv Reservoir in Vyshhorod, Ukraine. The Kyiv Reservoir serves as the lower reservoir and the upper reservoir is located 70 m (230 ft) above the lower.
Battery energy storage facilities are like a large power bank connected to energy grids, and are crucial for storing energy created by renewables like solar and wind for later use. The share of renewable energy in Ukraine's grid was about 10% before Russia’s full-scale invasion. Kyiv wants to up this to 27% by 2030.
The volumes of electrical energy produced in the Russia by solar and wind power plants, as well as their current and prospective role in the energy balances of Russian regions are analyzed.
The seven integrated power systems of Russia's unified power system. The geographically isolated energy systems are Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Kamchatka Territory, Sakhalin, and Magadan Oblast, Norilsk energy Districts of Taimyr and Nikolaev, western energy systems of Sakha (Yakutia) [Image courtesy of eclareon, Reproduced from Ref. 30]
The effects of the newly installed wind, solar, and hydroelectric power capacity on power generation became noticeable in 2018 when production of wind energy in Russia rose by 69.2%, and that from PV by 35.7%. Combined, wind and solar PV output crossed the 1 TWh threshold. 5
In Russia, the price of electricity is extremely low, and the grid is ubiquitous. Shifting mobility from internal combustion engine to electric vehicles therefore is an economically convenient opportunity starting from companies and cities operating large vehicle fleets.
In this blog, we’ll explore the different types of uninterruptible power supply systems, how they differ in operations, and the levels of protection they provide your critical load. The three most common types of UPS systems are standby (offline), line-interactive, and online double conversion.
In the industrial sector, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems play a critical role in protecting machinery and production processes from power interruptions and fluctuations.
Depending on application requirements, ST provides a range of solutions to design industrial power supplies and UPS that meet the most stringent reliability, safety and efficiency requirements set for any industrial heavy-duty application.
For large power units, dynamic uninterruptible power supplies (DUPS) are sometimes used. A synchronous motor/alternator is connected on the mains via a choke. Energy is stored in a flywheel. When the mains power fails, an eddy-current regulation maintains the power on the load as long as the flywheel's energy is not exhausted.
