“…To limit the energy flow within the battery, two conditions are considered for the charging and discharging modes. The rate of charging and discharging energy can be calculated by using Equations 15,16,17,and 18. Where, ∆𝐸 𝐶ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑚𝑎𝑥 (𝑡) is the maximum charging energy, 𝐵𝐸𝑆𝑆 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 is the battery size and THS is the total sun hours depending upon the location of the system. Similarly, ∆𝑡 is the defined period for which the energy calculation is conducted.…”

“…Literature shows that researches have been conducted for the design of the reliable system and to reduce the cost through various means like interconnection of MGs [12], optimization of generation technology [7,[13][14][15], finding the optimal way to share surplus energy between gridlines [7], load management [6,11]. However, these researches only focus on managing energy from the generation side [16,17]. Furthermore, the supply of these isolated MGs relies on RESs, where generation itself is on the question of a reliable source.…”

“…The majority of Nepal's electricity is generated by hydropower plans which are supplemented by cross-border power imports from India to meet the country's growing energy demands. Nepal has the opportunity to increase its generation capacity, earn export revenue, improve the power sector performance, and increase its electricity supply (Shrestha et al, 2021).…”

This study focuses on exploring the economic opportunities and potential challenges of cross-border electricity trade between Nepal and India. The main focus is on the transmission infrastructure, economic prospects, regulatory frameworks, and challenges involved. The study was conducted through secondary data analysis and descriptive research methods, to explore the strategic importance of electricity trade for Nepal, considering its abundant hydropower potential and geographical advantages. The existing transmission lines, infrastructure, and the role of private sector involvement in facilitating trade were examined. Moreover, the study discussed the seasonal demand variations between the two countries and the regulatory hurdles that need to be addressed for successful trade implementation. The finding highlights the potential economic benefits of electricity trade and emphasizes the need for clear guidelines, infrastructure development, and effective cooperation to overcome challenges and maximize trade’s positive impacts on economic growth and trade balance between India and Nepal.

“…This is Nepal's public electricity corporation and has a monopoly on power distribution in the country. The NEA has a history of poor service and (reportedly) corruption (Shrestha, 2016). Up until 2016, Nepali electricity customers were subject to a power-saving measure called "load shedding," due to insufficient electricity supply.…”

Current demands in the Nepali electricity sector: For a social reproduction theory of infrastructure

This article uses work and state relations at a Nepali electricity office as a staging ground for bringing the labour of repair squarely into focus in the ethnography of infrastructure. A trio of electricians at the office had a torrid time trying to address an ever-increasing number of complaints. Customers were under the impression that the electricians were both lazy and slow, despite even compromising safety regulations to get more work done. Although the electricians’ jobs may be comparatively stable and privileged, they put their bodies on the line to service an often-unappreciative public. This shows that infrastructures are made of people, not simply constructed by them. This is often skirted over in the anthropology of infrastructure, which frames repair through its absence and insufficiency, in rare ethnographic engagements with those who do repair work. A suggested response to this deficiency is found in a social reproduction theory of infrastructure.
