Tanahu Hydropower PDF

The Tanahu Hydropower Project is a 127 MW run-of-river hydropower plant located on the Seti River in Nepal. It will have an installed capacity of 140 MW. The project involves constructing a dam, powerhouse, and 36 km transmission line. It is expected to generate 585.7 GWh annually and will cost $505 million to construct, funded through loans from ADB, JICA, and EIB and contributions from the Nepali government. Construction is scheduled to begin in mid-2017 and be completed by the end of 2021. The project will provide electricity to rural areas and economic benefits but will also displace over 500 people and require acquisition of over 100 hectares of private land.

INTRODUCTION
Pre-feasibility study was conducted by NEA in 2001.
Upgraded feasibility study carried out by JICA in a period
from February 2005 to June 2007.
Installed capacity of 122 MW was identified in pre-
feasibility study and optimized to 127 MW in upgraded
feasibility study.
Installed capacity of 140 MW (Maximum) established in
detail engineering study.
Tanahu Hydropower Limited (THL) was established in 2012
as a subsidiary company of Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA)
as special purpose vehicle (SPH) to execute Tanahu
Hydropower Project.
INTRODUCTION CONT…

transmission line to New Bharatpur sub-station.
Estimated Annual energy 585.7 GWh (Primary Energy:
266.2 GWh, Secondary Energy: 319.5 GWh) for first 10 year
and estimated that it will decreased by 16% after 10 years.
Will be equipped with sediment flushing system

Construction will be started in mid of 2017 and will be


completed in end of 2021.
