Nepal is intensifying its focus on renewable energy, particularly hydropower, to meet its growing electricity demands and promote sustainable development. The government has initiated several large-scale hydropower projects, aiming to increase the country’s energy production and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
These initiatives are expected to not only supply domestic needs but also position Nepal as a significant energy exporter in the region. Neighboring countries, including Bangladesh and India, have shown interest in importing clean energy from Nepal, fostering regional cooperation in the energy sector. However, challenges such as environmental concerns and the displacement of local communities need to be addressed to ensure the success of these projects.
