Project 1
KABELI-A HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT (KAHEP)
🟡 90% Complete
Kabeli Energy Limited, a subsidiary of Arun Kabeli Power Limited (AKPL), is developing the 37.6 MW Kabeli-A Hydroelectric Project. The project underwent strategic optimizations, including a design transition from Peaking Run-of-River (PRoR) to Run-of-River (RoR) and conversion of the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) from USD to Nepalese Rupees. Despite administrative and government-related delays alongside transitions in lenders and contractors, construction has progressed steadily.
