69-MW Marsyangdi hydropower plant operating in full capacity

DAMAULI, August 1: The 69-megawatt Marshyangdi hydropower project at Anbu Khaireni of Tanahu district has been running in full capacity lately.

The hydropower project that was producing less electricity than its actual capacity has come to its full capacity, thanks to the rise in the water level in the rivers as a result of incessant rainfall, said Chief of Marsyangdi Hydropower Project Badri Phuyal.  

The energy is being generated from three turbines totaling 69-megawatt. The origin of the Marshyangdi River is in the mountains. 

In winter, the hydropower project generates 40-megawatt electricity due to fall in water level in the river.
