NKSoft Corporation is helping transform the country's electricity grids into smart ones. The Business Standard sat down with the company's co-founder and MD John Sakhawat Chowdhury to talk about NKSoft's projects in Bangladesh and its projects all over the world.

According to the source, the company is working with two local companies - Dhaka Power Distribution Company (DPDC) and West Zone Power Distribution Company (WZPDC) - to develop smart grid technologies for the first time in Bangladesh.

Under the smart grid, the company's engineers and officials would instantly know any disruptions in the power generation line through the central monitoring centre. It will also identify in advance many problems such as weak lines, weak transformers, weak poles, voltage generation etc., said  John Sakhawat Chowdhury.
