Most of us grew up hearing that Nepal has vast potential in Hydroelectricity. However, daily load shedding is a bitter reality in Nepal.
Rather than depending on multinational banks which charge hefty interest for capital (thus putting more burden on already impoverished nation), perhaps NRN could invest in future hydroelectric projects in Nepal. I assume NRN would be willing to invest with low interest, given that such projects will alleviate lives in Nepal.

I would assume that private sector investment would have more oversight on the money. Also the board of management looking after such project could have regular accounting of funds. I think such project could be a positive precedence for Nepal.

I think we will end up like Bhutan, giving all rights to India and live under it's mercy.

There are a couple of medium to small scale hydro-electricity projects that are under different phases of development undertaken by private sector investment. Unfortunately the last year's earthquake and subsequent river floods ruined many of them setting back completion dates as well as unexpected huge surges in capital requirements.

Nepal already has more than enough capital. Recently I heard about the share opening for a hydropower. More than triple the requirement applied for investment.

So it is not that we lack capital. We lack efficiency and good operating environment.

Maobadi even destroyed some hydropower stations during its insurgency.

If anyone knows that the money is coming from NRN, any piece of land acquisition or building anything would be at least 10 folds. Imagine, if you can build medium size hydropower for $40 Million, it would cost you at least $100M. That the situation in Nepal. Bahira bata paisa aako matra k bhannu parcha, everyone wants piece of it.
Plus Nepal already has enough hydropower plant.

Read it. This is reservior based hydropower. Yo banne saat, Nepal ko more than half power issue will be solved.
Tara k garne, na ta local yo huna dinchan, na ta Neta. Sabai lai paisa khanu pare ko cha.
There is no thinking of development in the mindset of people. Plus government lai pani k dos dinu, sabai jana balla balla satta pako huncha. Ani tesko faida kina na line ta. They have been struggling almost 20-30 years to get to that position.
Its all mindset. If all the Nepali have developement mindset, Nepal can solve this issue within couple of years.
Also recently euta Norway company pani Nepal ma investment garna lage ko thiyo re. They are not investing anymore.
Government does not put initiative on development.

If Nepal already has enough electricty then whey 8 hours or more daily load-shedding? Is Nepal secretly selling electricty to India which keeping Nepali people at dark?
