Power-Shedding To Only Five Hours A Day
By KTM Metro Reporter
July 3, 2013: Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) has reduced power outage to five hours a day. The new power shedding schedule comes to effect today, according to the news on ‘gorkhapatraonline.com’
Chief of Load Dispatch Center Bhuvan Kumar Kshetri has said that the reduction in power outage has been possible due to the improvement in power generation at the functioning hydropower stations.
Currently, the demand for electricity is around 1,000 MW and the NEA is supplying around 700 MW, he said. Out of total supply, 600 MW is from the domestic generation, and the 100 MW from the import from India, he said.
As the demand and supply fluctuates in the country, the power outage may decrease or increase during the rainy season, Kshetri said.
