Mini Grid. Case study of Connecting 7 MHPs of Baglung District

      Аннотация: Nepal is a landlocked country, situated in the south of Asia.Country is blessed with tremendous hydro power potential. The current electricity access is limited to only 40% of the total population. People are faced with 12 hours of load shedding especially during the dry season due to the shortage of electricity supply.In the present situation of power shortage in the national grids, it is almost impossible to supply electricity from National grids. The dissatisfaction of rural people in using electricity for only lighting purposes has forced the government to look for other alternatives. An effective use of decentralized energy technologies is an option for already electrified settlements to get relatively fast relief from the present electricity crisis on local level.Interconnection of Micro hydro power plants (already electrifying the Village) is one of the option to provide additional electricity and to improve the load factor of the Plants. Hence, this case study analysis technically, economically and socially benefits from connecting Micro-hydro plant to form mini grid in the locality.
