Nepalstarted its own hydropower plant in the early 1900s. After almost a century,where we had to stand in a position of exporting the electric power; we aresuppressed to live without electricity for 11 hours a day. A giganticfeasibility of 83000MW has been a misery when we are unable to fulfill a peakof 700MW. Under this present context, Department of Electrical and ElectronicsEngineering, Kathmandu University took a leap ahead to gather the field expertsto talk about what could have been done back then and what are the perspectivethat we need to focus from where we are being deprived. The ‘National Seminar on Electric PowerDevelopment in Nepal’(dated: 17^th and 18^thFebruary 2010) was the outcome of that initiation.

Then Mr. Ratna Sansar Shrestha presented the electricity marketing aspect inthe context of Nepal.“The saying ‘There is no electricitymarket in Nepal’ is a myth”,he said.

After that, Dr. Janak Lal Karmacharya presentedthe issues related with hydropower development in Nepal.  He spoke about different barriers andobstacles responsible for the degradation of electrical power sector in thecountry. Following, Mr. Dipak Upadhyay spoke on the current issues onthe power sector.  He first the presentedthe current power and energy status of the nation. If immediate step is nottaken to overcome the current energy crisis, the nation will have more energydeficit in the coming years. He also highlighted that we need more storage typehydropower plants and high capacity cross border transmission link can be theother option to overcome the crisis. Finally in the inaugural session Prof. Dr. SureshRaj Sharma, the Vice Chancellor of Kathmandu University elaboratedthe role of KathmanduUniversityin the field of Energy Development.

The workshop was sponsored by the UNEP and conducted by the Institute of Green Economy in collaboration with Teri University and Sharada University, India. Dr. Kayastha gave a talk on the “Changing Climate over Nepalese Himalayas and Impact on Glaciers.”

The workshop participants are of the opinion that the IPCC conclusion that the Himalayan glaciers could melt by 2035 is not based on scientific studies. The participants, however, wanted to emphasize that this does not, in any way, reduce the need for mitigation of, and adaptation to, climate change that has been initiated by the international community.
