Nepal has the capacity to produce upto Eight Five Thousand Megawats of Electricity - 85,000 megawatts. Today, country produces less than 50% of that capacity.
Why Can't Nepal Produce Enough Power ?
Due to lack of electricity, many parts of Nepal share electricity. Ask any Nepali who lives here if they like the word - Load Shedding, a term commonly used in Radio/Tvs and Publications to notify public of schedule of electricity for the comming week. Nepal has extreme land. Transportation for any construction in rural parts of Nepal is a major challenge. Many major hydropower projects require years, if not decades. Nepal realizes the problem and the need to generate electricity quickly. So, small hydropower projects, which can be done by small farmers or a group of villages, are being constructed across Nepal.
