The project said the overall construction is set to be completed by May 2026. The project will be one of Nepal’s biggest storage-type projects, with an estimated annual energy generation capacity of 587.7 GWh for the first 10 years and 489.9 GWh from the 11th year. During the dry season, the project can generate energy for six hours daily.
The government and the Nepal Electricity Authority will use their money to build the infrastructure during pre-construction. The project is estimated to cost $505 million, and the Nepal government will contribute $86 million.
