| description |
A large section of the Nepalese
population is deprived of electricity coverage despite huge
hydropower potential, particularly in rural areas. About 63
percent of Nepalese households lack access to electricity
and depend on oil-based or renewable energy alternatives.
The disparity in access is stark, with almost 90 percent of
the urban population connected, but less than 30 percent of
the rural population. Nepal has about 83,000 MW of
economically exploitable resources, but only 650 MW have
been developed so far. This study has been designated to
organize an evaluation system that measures the impact of
micro-hydro installations on rural livelihoods and to
establish a monitoring system for Alternative Energy
Promotion Center (APEC) to continually measure the results
of the results of the renewable energy programs against the targets. |
