Following the historic enactment of Act No. 18 of 2026, which repeals the 2010 Quick Energy Supply Act, and sweeping amendments to the Public Procurement Act via Act No. 41 of 2026, Bangladesh’s legal and regulatory landscape has fundamentally shifted. The era of unsolicited Independent Power Producer (IPP) agreements has officially ended, paving the way for a highly regulated, transparent, and market-driven procurement ecosystem. To help stakeholders adapt to these immediate legislative changes, Rahman’s Chambers cordially invites you to an exclusive hybrid seminar exploring the transition to competitive bidding under PPR 2025 and the strategic viability of the Merchant Power Plant (MPP) model.

This highly focused session will unpack the practical implications of the newly amended procurement laws, which introduce rigorous new standards for transparency and competition. We will delve into the statutory abolition of rigid legacy price caps, the implementation of the formula-based Significantly Low Tender (SLT) evaluation system, and the formal legalization of real-time reverse auctions for grid-connected renewable energy projects. Furthermore, our legal experts will discuss how mandatory e-GP portal processing under the newly formed Bangladesh Public Procurement Authority (BPPA) and the strict statutory disclosure of beneficial ownership will reshape the accountability, risk allocation, and bidding strategies of developers and EPC contractors in the open market.

As the energy sector pivots away from legacy IPP agreements burdened by sovereign capacity payments—which the government now has the statutory right to review and audit—the MPP model presents a dynamic, profitable alternative. Our discussions will guide private investors and project directors through structuring these market-driven energy investments while navigating the newly integrated Sustainable Public Procurement (SPP) mandates. Because environmental protection, labor rights, and occupational safety are now legally enforceable conditions under Section 16 of the amended PPA, aligning your clean-energy MPP proposals with these statutory ESG requirements will be paramount to securing approvals and maintaining a competitive edge.

Designed specifically for government policymakers, private energy investors, project financiers, and multinational engineering contractors, this seminar will provide the critical legal and financial foresight needed to thrive in Bangladesh’s restructured market.
