Energy Access and Scenario in Nepal

Key considerations

Focus on Lighting solutions for energy

sav ng

NEA and its efficiency program

Focus on Bottom of Pyramid consumers

Energy in Nepal at a glance

Authority for

Generation, Transmission

andDistribution

About 15 Million peoplethrough Grid network.

40 % ( more than 12 Million)Population have no Access to

Electricity

Off-grid consumers areserved by Solar or

Microhydro

System is predominantly Hydro( RORType) -

No coal and natural gas resources

NEA is a Vertically Integrated Utility responsible for

Generation, Transmission and Distribution

Key reasons for Supply-Demand Mismatch

Demand isescalated by

a) Inefficient EnergyLighting, Appliances

b) Theft/ pilferage (to the tune of 25%)

(a+b)Wastageforms a

big chunkof

consumpt

c) Demandgrowth is10% ormore

on.

Supply is limited by

Ageing Run-of River type ( whichare seasonal)

Addition of power in the Gridannually is 5% or less.

Design of CFL Program (I) and outcome

Urban- focused CFL Program

More than 600 Thousand CFL distributed in Kathmandu valley and some urbanareas outside Kathmandu from Govt. own funding. Post Evaluation done by theWorld Bank found that

From this saving in capacity and energy, we could electrify 20,000 households more. Observations

Market Transformation and now people buy CFL on their own to saveelectricity bills.

Average energy saving = 23 kWh/year/CFL

Average CFLs per household = 3.15
