Nepal must rethink its hydropower future

Putting all its eggs in one basket is not a good idea in an age of climate breakdown

#Nepal could generate up to 3,700MW of power mainly from run-of-river schemes that depend on the flow of water on rivers, and not large reservoirs. These plants are built right on fast-flowing #Himalaya'n rivers, and divert water through tunnels to power houses.

“Nothing is left. The structures have all been swept away, many projects that were started during my tenure at the NEA have also been destroyed,” says Kulman Ghising, who headed the Nepal Electricity Authority #NEA till last year, and who fought the election in March from his Ujyalo Nepal Party.

Nach der verheerenden #Sturzflut im #Himalaya mit mehr als 1.000 Toten dauern die Rettungsarbeiten an.

Zahlreiche Dörfer, Brücken und #Wasserkraftwerke wurden zerstört. Ein massiver #Gletscherabbruch gilt als Auslöser. #Nepal fordert internationale Unterstützung und verweist auf seine geringen CO2-Emissionen bei gleichzeitig wachsenden Folgen des #Klimawandels. Zudem soll gemeinsam mit China das #Frühwarnsystem verbessert werden.

H/T @jeevan Labh
“As we navigate the intensifying impacts of the 2026 El Niño, the vulnerability of our global food systems require careful evaluation. With this year’s erratic weather patterns driving severe, prolonged droughts in some regions and unseasonal, devastating floods in others, the climate crisis is proving that it is not a distant threat; it is happening right now, in our fields and on our plates.
This crisis is more visible in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region. Often called the “water tower of Asia,” this vast mountain range sustains 240 million people across eight countries and provides essential ecosystem services to nearly 2 billion people downstream. When glaciers melt at accelerated rates and monsoons become unpredictable, the narrative often focuses solely on the mountain communities. But the truth is much broader: a disrupted harvest in the high hills of Nepal or Bhutan creates a domino effect. It leads to displaced populations, reduced agricultural output flowing into the Indus, Ganges, and Brahmaputra basins, and ultimately, skyrocketing food prices for families living in the sprawling downstream plains.
The climate crisis respects no borders and recognizes no difference between altitude and sea level. Because this problem affects us all, the solution must protect us all. Fortunately, the means to overcome this challenge are already in our hands, locked within the ancient seeds of the mountains…”

Der diesjährige #Monsun im #Himalaya-Raum wird heißer und nasser als üblich.

Laut International Center for Integrated Mountain Development drohen vermehrt #Überschwemmungen, #Erdrutsche und Gletscherabgänge.

Temperaturen bis zu zwei Grad über dem Durchschnitt und starke #Regenfälle erhöhen das Risiko für Millionen Menschen. Besonders gefährdet sind Regionen mit unkontrollierter Bebauung.

Eight years i carried a wish deep in me: to visit A River At The Heart Of The World.

When it finally happened, I was dissolved completely.
