Summit started the Tk 575-crore project to produce 120MW of power in the first private power plant in Barisal in March last year, said Muhammed Aziz Khan, chairman of Summit Power Ltd. 
The plant will supply 110MW of electricity to the national grid, he said. 
The main power generation machinery of the plant was imported from Wartsila Finland, said SM Ali Ahsan, plant manager of Summit Barisal Power Ltd.
