Krishna Prasad Bhandari \u2013 a developer of the Jiri Khola hydropower project in eastern Nepal \u2013 has terrible memories of cyclone Hudhud that barreled through central India and hit the Himalayan region last October.<\/p>\n

The storm caused a landslide which destroyed the dam\u2019s pipes, halting services for several months, a pattern of increasingly extreme weather, the developer says.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust a month after the withdrawal of monsoon, who could expect such intense rainfall\u2026 we believe it was due to climate change,\u201d said Bhandari.<\/p>\n

After the event he asked officials from the Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA), the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology and the Ministry of Environment to verify whether the event was caused by climate change, but no one could confirm this.<\/p>\n

Scientists typically don\u2019t attribute any one event to climate change, but they do caution that the warming of the earth\u2019s climate will mean that once-rare weather events \u2013 such as droughts, floods and highly-destructive storms – could become m<\/a>uch more common<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Developers demand compensation\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201cInsurers don\u2019t provide full compensation, so for developers like us this has become a problem,\u201d said Bhandari.\u00a0 \u201cIn addition we are charged a penalty if we are unable to deliver energy as agreed to the NEA,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Jiri Khola is not the only hydropower project to be affected by climate change, developers say. \u00a0In 2009 the Jhimurk river in western Nepal, fell to a record low due to prolonged drought. \u00a0As a result, the 12 MW Jhimruk hydropower project couldn\u2019t provide the energy it was contracted to supply to the grid.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt wasn\u2019t our fault as river flow fell below minimum level but we had to pay a penalty to the Nepal Electricity Authority,\u201d said Pratik Man Pradhan, vice president of business development at the Butwal Power Company Limited.<\/p>\n

Hydropower developers say climate change is already affecting power generation and the future is even more unpredictable. And because authorities are not investigating whether climate change is likely to be responsible for severe droughts, it is the developers who are paying the price.<\/p>\n

But meteorologists question such strong assertions. \u201cClaims made by hydropower developers may be valid but we can\u2019t easily verify or declare something is related to climate change. Long term meteorological datasets have to be analysed before reaching such conclusions,\u201d said Rajendra Shrestha, retired senior meteorologist from the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology.<\/p>\n

Climate change hits hydro sector hard<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A recent research report by the Climate and Development Knowledge<\/a> on the economic impact of climate change in Nepal identified hydropower as one of the most vulnerable sectors: \u201cFuture effects of climate change on the hydro electricity sector are potentially large but uncertain.\u201d<\/p>\n

The report estimates an additional US$5 billion worth of new hydro capacity will be needed to meet demand by 2050 as well as additional thermal plants to provide power in times of drought. The additional stress of climate change on hydro-electricity production is already costing the equivalent of 0.1% of GDP per year on average, and 0.3% in very dry years, the study claims.<\/p>\n

But for small developers like Bhandari such vague reports have increased confusion rather than providing clarity.<\/p>\n

Over the last two years, Nepal has seen a hydropower boom. Last year the country approved<\/a> two large projects — the 900 MW Upper Karnali and 900 MW Arun III project –to be built by Indian companies. More recently the government gave the green light to a Chinese construction company to build the 750 MW West Seti project<\/a>. \u00a0Hundreds of small hydro projects have also been approved, with some already under construction.
\nNepal\u2019s hydropower potential is estimated to be about 80,000MW, of which only 700MW has been exploited, and the country suffers from long power cuts.<\/p>\n

Hydroelectric power is expected to be a key driver for Nepal\u2019s economic growth, one of the poorest countries in the world. The government aims to produce 25,000 MW of electricity by 2025 (including for export) but progress has been stymied by protracted political turmoil and Nepal\u2019s deep mistrust of its two larger neighbours.<\/p>\n

Currently more than 8,000 MW of hydropower<\/a> projects are under construction or in the pipeline.<\/p>\n

However, experts now fear that Nepal\u2019s billion dollar hydropower industry will be left highly vulnerable if climate change is not taken into consideration.<\/p>\n

Government inaction\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

But investors are not yet willing to put money into investigating the impact of climate change on hydropower infrastructure. Generally private developers are given a licence to operate for 30-35 years before they hand over projects to the government. Developers argue the government should take a fair share of the financial risks if additional investment is required to compensate for the impacts of climate change.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf long term planning is to be considered then both the government and the private sector should share risks and the government should provide financial incentives to the private sector,\u201d said Khadga Bahadur Bisht, president of the Independent Power Producers Association (IPPAN).<\/p>\n

C<\/em>limate change is not a priority for the government either, who has more pressing problems to deal with. \u00a0\u201cLocal protests [against dams] have become a headache – at this point climate change can\u2019t be a central focus,\u201d said Rajendra Kishore Kshetri, secretary at the Ministry of Energy.<\/p>\n

Local communities are increasingly demanding more of the benefits from hydropower projects, including infrastructure like roads, schools and hospitals in affected areas. Recently workers brought the Upper Tamakoshi hydropower project<\/a> in central Nepal to a halt<\/a>, demanding more shares in the project (the developer had allocated 10% of shares to people of the local Dolakha district).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
