Hari Shankar Shrestha, PhD 2 January 2013 Nepal’s present and future power system scenario
Outline • Energy situation in Nepal • Alternatives to solve the problem of load shedding • Optimum operation of PRoR and storage power plants • Reservoir sedimentation management • Power market
HYDROPOWER POTENTIAL IN NEPAL • Theoretical hydropower potential 83, 000 MW • 45,610 MW capacity economically feasible Upper Karnali (300) Dudh Koshi (300)) Budhi Gandaki (600) Upper Tamakoshi (456) Upper (335), Arun III (402) & Lower Arun (308) Pancheshwor (6400) Karnali Chisapani(10800) Kali Gandaki 2(660)
NEPALESE POWER SYSTEM INSTALLED CAPACITY: 718 MW IN GRID 713.0 MW OFF GRID (HYDRO) 5.0 MW HYDRO 659.59 MW THERMAL 53.41 MW IPP 187.58 MW NEA 472.0 MW STORAGE 92 MW ROR 380.0 MW
EXISTING MAJOR HYDROPOWER PLANTS • Total installed capacity 718 MW, • 665 MW (93%) Hydropower Plants Middle Marsyangdi (70) Bhotekoshi (36) Khimti (60) Kali Gandaki 2(144) Marsyangdi (70) Kulekhani I (60) Kulekhani II (32)
SEASONAL FLOW VARIATIONS • High variations in the flow pattern of the River. • January flow in the river is about 6.34% to 17.36% of the maximum annual flow.
Seasonal fluctuation of Power Supply MISMATCH IN THE SUPPLY AND DEMAND OF POWER Seasonal fluctuation of Peak Power and Energy Demand Dry Season -The fluctuation in Maximum demand and Energy demand through the year is about 9% and 13% respectively. -The seasonal fluctuation is about 55%.

Sedimentation monitoring in the Kulekhanireservoir • Area-elevation and capacity-elevation curves
Sedimentation monitoring in the Kulekhanireservoir • Reservoir capacity loss and sediment deposition variation
Sedimentation monitoring in the Kulekhanireservoir • Sediment deposition records • 18.0 mill. m3 of sedimentation due to the disastrous floods of 1993. • Stabilised the drainage basin to some extent • less sediment inflow to the reservoirafter 1995. • 1993 Flood
