Earlier this quarter, we learned of the successful testing and commissioning of the 200kW Bom Kohla Mini Hydropower project in Lukla, Nepal, made possible by Alternative Energy Promotion Centre (AEPC), ADB and the Lukla community. We offer our congratulations to HPNET members at AEPC who contributed to this project, enabling reliable, affordable, clean energy.
For a glimpse of the project – situated in the foothills of Mount Everest – and the team that brought it to fruition, check out this post from HPNET Member, Jiwan Kumar Mallik. Jiwan currently holds the position of Solar Power Expert under the AEPC’s Renewable Energy for Rural Livelihood (RERL) program.
Stay tuned for further updates on the implementation of the Bom Khola Mini Hydro project, coming soon!
