About Company
Hydropower development remained a state monopoly in Nepal for a long period. It is the Hydropower Development Policy of 1992, the Electricity Act of 1992, and the Water Resources Act of 1992 that opened investment in hydropower development to the private sector. Nepal Rastra Bank has categorized hydropower projects as one of the priority sectors for investment.
Nepali banks and financial institutions have shown interest to provide financing in this sector. Rural electrification is one of the pre-requisites for economic development. Electricity will not only increase the quality of life but also support the livelihood of people, thus contributing to poverty alleviation and economic development of the nation. There is scope for exporting surplus energy to India.
Nepal and India entered into a Power Trade Agreement that allows independent mutual power deals on government, semi-government and private sector levels between the two countries. With this opening of hydropower development to the private sector and with a view to contribute towards the rural economic development of Nepal, Guras Hydro Pvt Ltd. was established in 20th July 2020.
