Message from Chairman

Guru Prasad Neupane
Chairman

Nepal is a small mountainous country bordering between India and China. At the Northern part of the country there are high Himalayas and mountains whereas at the Southern part it is flat land. The Himalayas are the perennial sources of water that can be used for drinking, irrigation and electricity generation. With the magical topographic variation within a small distance and perennial sources of water there is ample opportunity for hydroelectric power generation.
Power generation through private sector has been opened after the introduction of Hydropower Development Policy and Electricity Act in 1991. Since then within a short span of time, the contribution of electric power in the national grid by private sector has remain significant. With this policy reform we were able to build and operating three hydropower projects, Piluwakhola (3MW) at Sankhuwasabha district, Ridikhola (2.4MW) at Gulmi district, and Rairangkhola (0.5MW) at Dhading district, Nepal.

Nepal is facing power deficit, hence, there is scope for power generation from public and private sector. If additional energy generated from the projects it can also be sold to the neighboring country. The company is working to build new projects. The contribution of electricity generation through private sector and government needs higher effort as Nepal is facing power deficit. Hence, there is ample scope of developing hydroelectric projects. If additional energy generated from the projects it can also be sold to the neighboring country. The company is working to construct 9900kW Iwakhola Hydroelectric Project, located at Eastern part of Nepal.

Power is the basic infrastructure for economic growth. In order to support the country's deficit power, I request to the interested parties for the investment in hydropower projects in Nepal. Our motto is "Power Generation through Peoples' Participation". We request you to join hand by investing in hydroelectric projects
