Rs97 Billion for New MW Hydropower in Nepal Approved


 The Investment Board Nepal this week approved foreign investment worth Rs97 billion for two hydropower projects, the 285MW Tamor and 139.2MW Lower Manang on the Marsyangdi. India’s SJVN is also being issued a survey permit for a detailed feasibility study of the 679MW Lower Arun project in Sankhuwasabha.

Likewise, the meeting directed the Ministry of Energy, Water Resources and Irrigation to improve the laws to address the ambiguity regarding the survey permission for the Tamor Reservoir Hydropower Project (756 MW). It also formed a committee to study and prepare a blueprint for the development and investment of the West Seti and SR-6 joint hydropower projects.

How we can save hydropower

                                        marketing@boland-hydroturbine.com Hydropower is the world’s third largest source of electricity and provides around 70% of the world’s renewable energy. However, dams – the traditional way we’ve harvested energy from water – are not as sustainable as you might think, disrupting the ecosystems within and around rivers, reducing biodiversity, and messing with water quality. Now, researchers are trying to find a way to make hydropower more environmentally friendly. “It’s only recently that people have started to realize that these dams fill up with sediment, that they are structurally unsound, some of them, and that something needs to be done with them,” says Carlos Garcia de Leaniz of Swansea University in Wales. But the world needs energy, and compared to other forms of renewable energy, hydropower is both flexib...

Bill Gates-led Fund Invests in Startup That Built a New Hydropower Turbine

                                           https://www.boland-hydroturbine.com/ Hydropower—converting moving water into energy—is the single biggest source of clean power in the world, but relies on a 200-year-old technology that hasn't changed all that much. Natel Energy Inc., a California-based hydro power startup, has developed a new turbine that updates that technology, and now the company is raising $11 million in a funding round led by Schneider Electric Ventures and Breakthrough Energy Ventures, a fund helmed by Bill Gates. The turbine lowers the construction cost of power plants, because it requires less cement and steel. It also allows for safer passage for fish, which has become a stringent environmental regulation for these types of projects in both the U.S. and Europe. Natel Energy was started by two engineers and siblings, Gia a...

Something You May Want To Know About Hydropower Dams Published on November 13, 2019

                                    https://www.boland-hydroturbine.com   A  hydroelectric dam  is one of the major components of a hydroelectric facility. A dam is a large, man-made structure built to contain some body of water. In addition to construction for the purpose of producing hydroelectric power, dams are created to control river flow and regulate flooding In some rivers, small scale dams known as weirs are built to control and measure water flow. Dams fall into the category of retaining structures, or structures that are built to create large standing bodies of water known as reserviors These reservoirs can be used for irrigation, electrical generation, or water supply. These structures are built on top of riverbeds and hold back water, raising the water level. Dikes can be built along with the dam to increase the dams effectiv...
