Seeking their support to implement the government's vision, Bipu said, "It is possible to solve any problem through a united effort."
He hoped that the association will modernise the existing power policy and guidelines.
Currently, there are 50 members in the association who have their own power generating units. The Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) has been purchasing power from them as the lone buyer.
