ABOUTDHAKAELECTRICSUPPLYCOMPANYLIMITED(DESCO)
HISTORY
In the prevailing socioeconomic and political environment it is a great challenge in earning customer confidence for a public sector utility company In
Bangladesh.Butdespiteallrealitiesandconfrontingallchallenges,DhakaElectricitySupplyCompanyLtd(DESCO)iscommittedtoachievethedistinctionof
theleadingmostcompanyinthecontextofearningcustomersconfidence.
TheemergenceofelectricityuseinourpartoftheworldwhereBangladeshissituateddatesback140years.Actuallyelectricitycamehereonlytwoyears
aftertheusestartedinerstwhileKolkata.ABritishcompanyon24June1879firstsetthemillstoneofelectricityuseinKolkata.Graduallyafterwardslimited
scale use of electricity started in different parts of undivided India. But the first formal use of electricity started from the first thermal power plant by
CalcuttaElectricitySupplyCorporation(CESC)inApril1899underthepatronageofLordCurzon.
NawabofDhakaintroducedelectricityinBangladeshin1901.OnlyAhsanManzilusedtoenjoytheprivilegeofusingelectricityinitially.Electricityusefor
generalcitizensstartedin1930.AcompanynamedDEVCOwascreatedforpowerdistributioninDhaka.Theyusedtogeneratepowerintheirownplant
and supply. It continued till 1947. Pakistan government took it over in 1957. In 1947, other than Dhaka 17 other districts were partially under power
generation and distribution coverage. After creation of Water and Power Development Board in 1959 power generation and distribution came under
exclusivegovernmentcontrol.
AfterindependenceofBangladesh,WAPDAwasdividedintotwoparts.Theresponsibilityofpowergenerationanddistributionwasvestedonthepower
wing of WAPDA. From 1972 till 1991, BPDB was exclusively responsible for power distribution in the entire country. After the creation of Rural
ElectrificationBoard(REB)in1977thetaskofsupplyingpowerinruralareaswasgraduallyhandedovertoREB.NowREBisdischargingthisresponsibility
through72PollyBidyutSamity(PBS).
From19711991thePowerSectorwasdependentonloansandassistanceofdevelopmentpartnersanddonoragencies.Butchangingparadigminglobal
scenario generated encouragement among investment communities for investment in Bangladesh power sector. But at the same time donor agencies
offeredfinancialassistanceattachingvariouscovenantsforreformsandrestructuring.Onthebackdropofabove,DhakaElectricSupplyAuthority(DESA)
washandedovertheresponsibilityfromBPDBforsupplyingpowerinDhakaMetropolisandadjacentareas(Narsingdi,Gazipur,Narayanganj,Munshiganj
and Manikganj). DESA was created with three major objectives. These were: Reducing staggering system loss, increase revenue collection and ensuring
bettercustomerservices.DESAwascreatedthroughaPresidentialOrderin1990andstartedoperationin1991.
