4. FACTS
The identified hydro power potential for the state is 16,475 MW out of the
estimated 20,000 MW. The Chenab basin comprises of 11,283 MW, Jhelum basin
consists of 3,084 MW, Ravi basin comprises of 500 MW and the Indus basin
accounts for 1,608 MW.
As of October 2017, J&K had a total installed power generation capacity of
3,297.28 MW, comprising 1,733.43 MW under central utilities, 1,513.03 MW
under state utilities and 50.82 MW under private utilities., consisting of 1211.96
MW in State Sector from 21 power projects, 2009 MW in Central Sector from 7
projects.

5. Mohra 1905
• Mohra Hydro-Electric Power Stations.
• It was in the year 1907, during the reign of Maharaja Pratap Singh, that the British
designed a 4000 Kilowatts at Mohra about 22.5 kms. from Baramulla towards Uri
in Kashmir.
• After some years, machinery costing about 2 crores of rupees was set up to add 600
kilowatts to the existing capacity. Srinagar, Sopore, Baramulla and Gulmarg towns
are supplied electric power from this power station.
• Non fuctional since 1992

120MW capacity each designed to operate under the net rated head of 222.5m

9. Uri 2

10. uri 2
• Uri-II power station is run-of-the-river scheme with an installed capacity of 240
MW (4 X 60 MW) to harnesses the Hydropower potential of river Jhelum (a
tributary of Indus river).
• It is located in Uri tehsil of Baramulla district of Jammu & Kashmir. The project
comprises of a 52 m high concrete gravity dam with 4 penstock each of 34.50 m
length (MIV to PH) and 3.5 m diameter each.
• The underground power house with installed capacity of 240 MW houses 4 units of
60 MW capacities each designed to operate under the net rated head of 118 m

11. Dhulhasti
• Dulhasti power station is run-of-the-river with pondage scheme with an installed capacity of
390 MW (3 X 130MW) to harness the hydropower potential of river Chenab.
• It is located in Kishtwar district of Jammu & Kashmir. The project comprises of a 65 m high
& 186 m long concrete gravity dam with 3 penstocks of 93 m length and 3.65 m diameter
each.
• The underground power house with installed capacity of 390 MW houses 3 units of 130 MW
capacity each designed to operate under the net rated head of 207.5 m

12. LJH PROJECT

13. Lower jehlum Power project

14. SALAL Power Plant
• Salal power station is run-of-the-river (purely ROR) scheme with an installed capacity of 690
MW (Stage-I of 3 x115 MW & Stage-II 3 X115 MW) to harnesses the Hydropower potential
of river Chenab.

capacity each designed to operate under the net rated head of 94.5 M

15. Ratle Hydroelectric Plant
• The Ratle Hydroelectric Plant is a run-of-the-river hydroelectric power station
currently under construction on the Chenab River, downstream of the village of
Ratle, near Drabshalla in Kishtwar district of the state of Jammu and Kashmir.
• The project includes a 133 m (436 ft) tall gravity dam and two power stations
adjacent to one another. Water from the dam will be diverted through four intake
tunnels about 400 m (0.25 mi) southwest to the power stations.
• The main power station will contain four 205 MW Francis turbines and the
auxiliary power station will contain one 30 MW Francis turbine. The installed
capacity of both power stations will be 850 MW.

16. Nimoo Bazgo Hydroelectric Plant
• the Nimoo Bazgo Power Project is a run-
of-the-river power project on the Indus
River situated at Alchi village, 75
kilometres (47 mi) from Leh in the state
of Jammu and Kashmir
• The Nimoo Bazgo power project
envisages utilizing a rated net head of 34
m (112 ft) to generate 45 MW

17. POWER PROJECTS IN DIFFRENT
RIVER BASINS

21. FUTURE
• Due to its location in the Himalayan region, J&K has significant hydropower potential for
development
• “Presently, Jammu and Kashmir is the only state where development of hydropower is a
priority. Elsewhere in India, the focus is on solar power,”
• At a time when hydropower dams are running to challenges across South Asia, and being
dismantled in the US and Europe, the government of India is planning speedy construction of
eight hydroelectricity projects in the Himalayan state of Jammu and Kashmir. They will have
a total installed capacity of 6,352 MW at a projected cost of INR 567 billion (USD 9 billion).

22. New projects
• These projects are
• Sawalkote (1,856 MW),
• Kirthai I (390 MW),
• Kirthai II (930 MW),
• Pakal Dul (1,000 MW),
• Kwar (540 MW),
• Kiru (624 MW),
• Bursar (800 MW) in the Chenab basin
• and the multi-purpose Ujh project (212 MW) in the Ravi basin.
• Their combined installed capacity is projected to be around double the current installed
hydropower generation capacity (3,220 MW) in the state, from projects built over several
decades.

23. Key Findings
• “The EAC members felt that the proposed location is located in a rich biodiversity area,
Kishtwar High Altitude National Park is located within 10 km radius of the project site,
addressing of deep pools and their season migratory path in between dam to power house for
fish spawning, etc.
• Environmental concerns ignored
• Cascading projects on the Chenab
• earthquake prone area
• water quality effected
