ONE Bank has recently arranged a syndicated IPFF II Facility of USD
17.78 million for Technaf Solartech Energy Limited, a concern of
Expo Group.
Investment Promotion and Financing Facility II (IPFF II) is a Project of Government of Bangladesh, with financial support of the
World Bank for creating sustainable platform for low cost long-term financing in
infrastructure and strengthening skills and abilities of the private sector to bridge
the substantial infrastructure gap in Bangladesh where Bangladesh Bank (BB) acts as the
Project Implementation Unit (PIU).
Bangladesh Infrastructure Finance Fund Limited (BIFFL) and ONE Bank Limited (OBL) have jointly participated in the subject
finance in USD for 13 years through a syndication led by OBL.
Technaf Solartech has been operating a 20 MW national grid-tied solar power plant located on the shores
of the Naf River in Teknaf under a Power Purchase Agreement with the Bangladesh Power
Development Board for 20 years. Over this period, TSEL is
expected to achieve carbon emission savings of approximately 400,000
tons. Average annual yield is 38,000 MWh and the power supply will
cover up to 80% of the present electricity demand of the entire Teknaf
region.
