    Discharge (l/s)

    MHP

    MHP Components

    Power Calculation

    P = g*Q*H*
    Where, P = Power (kilo Watt) g = Acceleration due to gravity (m/sec2) Q = Discharge (l/sec) H = Head (meter) = Overall efficiency

    Additional Subsidy

    35

    Potential for Financing


    GoN Subsidy ~ 40% Community Contribution ~ 20% Potential for Financing ~40% of TPC.

    36

    Risks Associated with financing


    Collateral Operation & Maintenance Loan Repayment (less IGAs) Low return

    Issues
    Transportation: Terrain Habitat Load Consumption Political and Social Issues Economical Issues Technical Issues Sustainability Issues
    38

    Transportation:
    Road access Crossing of Rivers Delivery of Equipments Increases Project Costs

    39

    Terrain
    Complicated Terrain Structure Difficulties of Civil Construction

    40

    Habitat
    Scattered Habitat Large Distances between 2 Habitats.

    41

    Political and Social Issues


    Water Right Issues. Conflicts in Terai Region. Lack of Youths in the Villages. Hooking and Political Sheltered. Lack of Security for the Monitoring Staffs. Absence of Local Development Bodies representatives.
    42

    Economical Issues
    Lack of Financial Resources. Bank rarely financed RE. Syndicate System and Inflation.

    43

    Technical Issues
    Lack of Trained Operators and Skilled Manpower for the Installation. High Turnover Rate of Youth and Skill Manpower from villages. Overloading of Transformers and Generators.
    Hydrology (Discharge measurement) Low Efficiency of the System. Comparatively weak construction of Civil components. 44 Not capable to manufacture turbine (>100

    Sustainability Issues
    Financial transparency in community Lack of we-feeling (ownership) Weak Management Less Tariff Less IG activities/ End Use promotion (low
    HDI, lack of local market, inaccessible, low reliability of MHP, high seasonal migration)

    Lack of Maintenance Fund Social Inclusion Aspects
