Hydro Power in Nepal
Water resources play a major role for the economic development of Nepal. Favorable geophysical features provide good opportunities for hydropower development.
Less than 5.1 percent of the estimated techno-economically feasible potential (approximately 80,000 MW) has been developed till date.
Realizing the potential for hydropower development, the Government of Nepal (GoN) has established various institutional arrangements, formulated several plans and policies to encourage both the public as well as the private sector to be involved in hydropower development.
Government of Nepal (GoN) has formulated Water Resources Strategy, 2002 and National Water Plan, 2005. With these policies GoN has emphasized the need to increase private sector involvement in hydropower development. It has provided various incentives to attract the private sector in hydropower development.
Moreover, for protection of the environment, GoN published Environment Protection Act, 1997 & Environment Protection Rules, 1997 & National EIA Guidelines, 1993
In Nepal, the first hydropower plant was established at Pharping (500-KW) in 1911, 29 years after the world's first plant was established.
Department of Electricity Development (DOED) has published guidelines for study of Hydropower in 2018. The Guidelines have classified hydropower projects on the basis of capacity, head and scheme.
