Power outage to go down by 2 hrs

Load Dispatch Centre of the Nepal Electricity Authority today said the current daily load shedding hours will go down by two hours with effect from Sunday.
With the onset of the summer, the snow-capped mountains are melting and the snow-fed rivers are increasing the water recharge in the rivers which have led to the reduce in power outage, the government body said. LDC chief Bhuwan Kumar Chhetri said the new load-shedding schedule will be released on Saturday.
He said the authority made the decision after observing energy surplus for the last five days. “The temporary transformers installed at Kulekhani II will generate additional 10 MW from Sunday giving some relief to the public,” said Chhetri.
