Abstract

In the context of globalization and open market economy, there is no alternative to the discovery of energy and mineral resources of Bangladesh and its proper management and planned use. Besides, Bangladesh is committed to the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030 announced by the United Nations and the government is setting the targets for the implementation of the SDGs in the light of the 8th Five-Year Plan. That is why uninterrupted fuel supply is required. The present government has identified the energy sector as a priority sector, realizing the necessity of energy sector development. The role of private companies is essential to meet the country's growing energy demands as well as to move from a mid-income country to a developed country. Therefore, this study analyzes the role of private entities in the energy sector of Bangladesh The research focuses on the following points: (i) Economic rebound through Covid-19 scenario in Bangladesh; (ii) Contribution of private entities to the energy sector of Bangladesh (iii) Challenges faced by private entities in energy sector of Bangladesh (iv) Prospects of private entities in energy sector of Bangladesh (v) private entities to enhance energy security.
