Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA), founded in August 16, 1985 is the parent generator and distributor of electric power under the supervision of the government of Nepal.[1]
NEA owns Hydroelectric Plants connected to the grid amounting to 480 Megawatts. It also buys power from Independent Power Producers (IPP) amounting to 230 Megawatts. It operates two fuel operated plants generating 53 Megawatts of Electricity. The total capacity of the Integrated Nepal Power System (INPS) which NEA operates stands at 757 Megawatts.[2] With the demand for electricity ever increasing, NEA has not been able to cope with the huge demand. As a result of which Nepal faces loadshedding for up to 16 hours a day during the dry season. Various projects are underway to help meet the electricity demand but these have been plagued by delays.[3][4]
