The Budhi Gandaki Hydroelectric Project is a proposed hydroelectric power plant in Nepal, to be developed by Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA). This storage hydropower plant is to be located on the Budhi Gandaki River , approximately 2 km upstream of its confluence with Trishuli River , about 55 km west of Kathmandu (80 km by road).
The project is anticipated to yield a power generation capacity of 300 MW, contributing to a significant average annual energy production of 1143 GWh. [1] [3] The Balakot Hydropower Project is a joint venture financially supported by both the Asian Development Bank and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank.
The Meghri Hydro Power Plant is a joint Armenian-Iranian project slated to be constructed on the Araks River near Armenia's southern border town of Meghri. [ 12 ] In 2010, the energy ministers of Armenia and Iran signed a document on the long-anticipated construction of two hydropower stations on the Arax River.
The impact assessment studies were done and presented prior to construction. One private developer, Elgon Hydro Siti Private, has applied for the development rights to the project. [5] The 21.5 Megawatt power complex comprising Siti I and Siti II is the largest power generating installation in northeastern Uganda.
Achwa 1 is a run-of-the-river hydroelectricity project with planned annual output of 274 GWh. This power station is one in a cascade of five power stations planned on the Achwa River totaling 109 megawatts (146,000 hp).
Hydroelectricity is, as of 2019, the second-largest renewable source of energy in both generation and nominal capacity (behind wind power) in the United States. [1] In 2021, hydroelectric power produced 31.5% of the total renewable electricity, and 6.3% of the total U.S. electricity. [2]
The renewable energy infrastructure development is owned by the government of Ethiopia and was constructed by China Gezhouba Group, a subsidiary of China Energy Engineering Corporation at an estimated cost of £352.7 million ($451 million), co-financed by the Exim Bank of China and the Ethiopian Government.
The project will comprise the Main Power Station and the Regulating Dam Power Station. Mpatamanga Hydro Power Limited (MHPL), a Special Purpose Vehicle, has been established for purposes of the Project which will sell 100 percent of its production to Malawi's national utility, ESCOM, as off-taker under a 30-year power purchase agreement (“PPA ...
