The 25-megawatt (MW) Kabeli B1 Hydropower project has started testing electricity generation.
The power project in the Kabeli River – that divides Panchthar and Taplejung districts – has been constructed by Arun Kabeli Power Limited.
After the Kabeli Corridor conducted testing, the hydro power started testing power generation, informed director at the Arun Kabeli Power Limited Ramesh Neupane. “The preparations are on to start regular power generation within a month, if the test production succeeded,” he said, adding that Arun Kabeli Power Limited has completed work from its side. “Power will be evacuated to central transmission line after Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) gives us permission,” said Neupane.
Due to delay in the construction of the power project, construction cost had jumped to Rs 5 billion from Rs 4 billion.
