POLICY ADOPTION

  • Formulate National Energy Security Policy
  • Fix generation mix [40-50 % from reservoir-based

and pump storage, 15-20 % Peaking Run of River, 25- 30 % Run of River and 5-10 % other alternative sources]

  • Adjust/Determine electricity tariff , power purchase

rate to address time of the day and seasonal variation.

– ROR Project The total energy generated in six months must be at least 70% of annual energy generation of the project.

  • 1 December (Mangsir 16) – 28 May (Jestha 15)
  • NRs. 8.40
  • 29 May (Jestha 16) – 30 November (Mangsir 15) - NRs. 4.80

  • 2-3 hours peaking
  • NRs. 8.80
  • 3-4 hours peaking
  • NRs. 9.40
  • 4-6 hours peaking
  • NRs. 10.55
