Easy way to get energy from the nature without pollute the atmosphere.There must be a energy resourses biofuel is realy good.

Bro, look at a map. If Nepal creates Hydro-Electric Projects ...
1. India might have a problem with that.
2. It will flood portions of Nepal. It's already a small country and most of the people live in the low lands.

Think before you talk.

The people of Humla and many other remote areas of Nepal require support for harnessing solar energy and waterpower for electricity generation. Clean energy will have a significant and positive impact on the lives of thousands of local people. It will provide a cleaner, healthier home environment that will reduce the level of respiratory diseases and eye problems and promote literacy and hygiene. The working environment for women, in particular, will be vastly improved by especially reducing the hardships of fuel wood collection and food processing and allow both women and men more time to concentrate on other community activities and their families.

I live in nepal , First u fools nepal has many problems, especially its goverment, miss managment has been the source of all the problems.

Nepal is now handing out many contracts to foreign groups to set up hydro power plants, yet this will take some time, second Nepal is not so small, Luxemburg is small. additionally Nepal has no money to set up powerlines to remote locations , so they need to fend for themself. thats why solar power is used, Solar power has been used in Kathmandu for a long time to heat the water used within the home. so it is a logical step to take to solar power.

Myself i'm thinking of setting up 20 pannels on my factory roof, because this year the power cuts are going to last up to 11 hours. making it very hard to do any bussiness.

Solar power is a way for induviduals to take care of their power needs. and in time with more and more enegy problems in the world, nepal will become very rich exporting it's power.

So Watch Nepal

(By the way i'm not nepali, so don't think i'm all pro Nepal)

I m a Nepali residing in US MN for a while now. I have been thinking about going back to Nepal on some development projects. I agree with the irony mentioned by Rodriguez regarding why not use micro hydro instead of solar being Nepal second richest in hydro electric after Brazil potentially (so they say). But how effective would it be to harness the power. Makes me think. Solar power are modular and can be installed at any right place. Micro hydro would need more planning. I have heard it all too - Government is the problem. Not really had to deal with them yet but may have to when I am there initiating some projects.

Famous quote in nepali" Jaha eecha, teha Upaye" meaning, When there is a will, there is a way.But for Nepal, we need to modify this quote to " when there is MONEY, there is a way". It is true Nepal can generate a lot of electricity through hydro- power, but the problem lies on, who has billions of dollars to invest on it. Would you expect Nepali government with most of the income based on foreign aid to find so much MONEY to invest on building Hydro-power? We don't even have a nice highways to join each district, so building road to location,(more MONEY), and setting up expensive power grid over the hills is virtually impossible. Creating a dam, displaces thousands of people from their homes,( more money to be spent , if you actually pay those displaced people). Not to mention the half the money that disappears even before the project starts.
so,at least "Kishani Dai" farmer can get a loan putting his Gairi Khet(field) as Dhitto(guarante), and buy cheap solar power grid on his own and watch TV and find out the world beyond those Nau Danda.
Scientifically, since most of the villages in hilly regions of Nepal are located higher than 10,000 feet from sea level, if we develop solar cells that are more efficient at higher altitude utilizing the UV spectrum of the solar energy, I don't see why Nepal could use solar energy for people living in remote hilly villages. But first, MONEY.

A solar energy company will soon launch a solar backup system in Kathmandu. It will be the best solution for load shedding as well as saving from not utilizing grid power. Look Forward to this.
