The Independent Power Producers Association of Nepal (IPPAN) has welcomed the US grant project, Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) compact, by parliament.
IPPAN said the ratification of the MCC compact has added a new dimension to the development of Nepal's power sector.
IPPAN's vice-president Ashish Garg said at a press conference organized here today to give information about the Third Himalayan Hydro Expo that the endorsement of the MCC compact by Nepal's parliament has enthused the independent power producers and promoters who have been facing problems, particularly of the lack of transmission line. He added that the compact has also opened a new door of opportunities for them.
Garg viewed that the MCC compact will support the country's journey towards economic prosperity.
The Expo is being organized at local Bhrikutimandap from April 1 to 3. The goal of the Expo is to promote domestic consumption of electricity and electricity trade. The event is being organized by IPPAN and it will include 100 stalls related to the hydroelectricity promoters, producers, equipment suppliers, turbine manufacturers, investors, banks, insurance companies, among others.
The Expo will also have stalls related to new technology and construction. It also aims to promote the international market for Nepal's hydroelectricity.
