Bangladesh Textile Mills Corporation (BTMC) officially handed over the project site to Orion Quaderia Textiles Ltd., a sister concern of ORION, on December 1, 2019.

Earlier, ORION signed a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) agreement with BTMC on July 21, 2019, with the objective of contributing to the advancement of Bangladesh’s Ready-Made Garments (RMG) industry. On this occasion, Brigadier General Muhammad Kamruzzaman, Chairman of BTMC, formally handed over the land to Orion Quaderia Textiles Ltd. ORION plans to establish a state-of-the-art denim complex, along with washing facilities and extended RMG units, on the project site in Gazipur.

Infrastructure Development Company Limited (IDCOL), a government-owned development financial institution involved in private sector energy and infrastructure financing in Bangladesh, has recently signed a mandate with Energon Renewables (BD) Limited, an emerging concern of ORION, to raise a syndicated term loan facility for the establishment of a 100 MW (AC) solar park at Bora Durgapur, Mongla, Bagerhat. The solar power plant will be developed on a Build-Own-Operate (BOO) basis under a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB). The project is expected to achieve commercial operation by August 2020.
