Description
The connection of Micro/ Mini hydro and Mini grids to the national grid has been discussed for a long time both by subject matter experts and generalists in Nepal. It is seen as a solution to alleviate the current power deficit crisis faced by the country, albeit to a limited extent some have argued. In addition, there are proponents that see it as a potential source of income for rural areas. Currently, there are two grid connection projects that are ongoing and expected to be completed by mid 2016.
