  Nepal will face shortfall of Rs 1.369 trillion to construct big hydropower projects in the pipeline by 2035: NEA

Nepal will need an estimated Rs 865 billion to build big hydropower projects, which are ready to kick start construction, in the next 12 years.

Managing Director of the Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) Kulman Ghising on Tuesday said the aforementioned amount has been projected for the NEA’s pipeline projects. Presenting a paper at a workshop entitled ‘Financing Energy Sector in Nepal’, Ghising said the authority has been looking forward to managing investment for the hydropower projects that have completed the feasibility study. The program was organized by the USAID-Funded Urja Nepal Project.

According to the NEA, 1,061 MW Upper Arun, 635 MW Dudhkoshi, 490 MW Arun-4. 100 MW Tamakoshi-5, 210 MW Chainpur Seti and 60 MW Modi Hydropower Project, among others, are ready to go into construction phase but lack financial resources. Ghising said the NEA has planned to finance small projects from its own source, while foreign loans will have to be managed for big projects.

Out of the foreign assistance, the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank, EXIM Bank and Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) Nepal have expressed their commitments to invest in these hydropower projects.

Likewise, an additional Rs 762 billion has been sought for installation of transmission lines and substations. The transmission lines are considered vital to construct a high capacity distribution network that will ensure quality enhancement for distribution and extension of electrification, according to the NEA.

Ghising said they have been working to make a distribution network that will help meet the demand for electricity for the next seven years. This will include five cross-border transmission lines, which can transfer more than 12,000 MW of electricity for energy trade. A total of Rs 412 billion has been estimated to construct infrastructure related to distribution.

Satish Joshi, an energy specialist at Urja Nepal Project, said Nepal will need more than Rs 67 billion on an average annually for infrastructures related to construction of hydroelectricity projects by 2035. According to him, an additional Rs 38 billion will be needed annually to install transmission lines, while a total of Rs 270 billion will be needed for substations.

The NEA has estimated that it will face a deficit of Rs 1.369 trillion to finance the planned projects. The state-owned public utility has sought to manage the amount by issuing initial public offerings and green bonds for production, while implementing the joint venture model and boot model in the transmission sector.
