ReGen Powertech likely to get 1 year extension

ReGen Powertech, an Indian company which was awarded contract for conducting wind mapping across the coastal area of Bangladesh to assess wind power potential, is likely to get one year extension for the job. A Power Division source said the company was appointed in 2012 for a two-year term to conduct wind mapping through installing wind towers in five places in the country's coastal and river bank areas. But so far, the company was able to complete the data collection of only two spots -- Muhuri's Char in Feni and Magnama in Cox's Bazar districts, according to a news agency.
