KATHMANDU, FEBRUARY 12: The 86-megawatt of electricity generated from the Solukhola Dudhkoshi Hydropower Project has been connected to the national grid. The project with Sahas Power Company Limited as the promoter had gone through a test since last week. The electricity has been generated by channelizing water from the Solu rivulet of Solududhkunda municipality-11 to Maikubesi of Thulung Dudhkoshi rural municipality-3.

The river-based hydropower project has been connected to the 132-KVA Solu corridor of the Lammane sub-station. The project has connected the company-produced electricity to the 132-KV transmission line from the powerhouse to Lammane. Chairperson of Sahas Power Company Him Pathak shared that the company-generated electricity has been connected to the national transmission line of the Nepal Electricity Authority after a successful test operation. He further said that commercial production would be initiated within 15 days with the connection to the central transmission line.
