1. Introduction
1.1. Background:
Nepal being water rich country has huge potentiality to hydropower energy production
Since 1911AD, 500 kW power generation at Pharping(chandra jyoti)
Dr. Hari Man Shrestha
The theoretical hydropower potential of Nepal is 83,000 MW
Economically=42,000 mw
Technically =43000mw
According to NEA 2018/19 annual report
Nepal has developed only around 1,182.215MW
Economical
Sapta koshi =10860 mw
Sapta Gandaki =5270 mw
Karnali and mahakali =25125 mw
Southern rivers = 878 mw
Total generated capacity of small HPP=563394KW
Isolated capacity=4536

1. Introduction
1.2. Introduction
Small Hydropower plant: Although definitions vary, DOE defines small hydropower as projects that
generate 10 MW or less of power.
Types of hydropower project
Storage HPP
Diversion HPP
Run of River (RoR) HPP
Peak Run of River (PRoR) HPP
Pumped Storage HPP
Classification of hydropower according to generation capacity
Pico <5kw
Micro 5-10 kw
Mini 100kw-1000kw(1mw)
Small 1mw-10mw
Medium 10mw-100mw
Larger above 100mw

1. Introduction
Why small hydropower plant?
 Easy to find developer due to its low initial cost
 Involves less social, economical, political, and technical issues
 Easily available project
 Less man power and technology required
 Less chances of failure and hazard risk
 Low construction time
 More effective in operation and maintenance
 Useful in isolated areas

2.Literature Review:
The project is prepare in complete conformity with various stipulation in Indian Standards, Code of
practice for plain and reinforced concrete IS 456:2000, Design Aids for reinforced concrete to IS
456:2000(SP-16), Criteria Earthquake Resistant design structures IS 1893:2016, Ductile detailing of
reinforced Concrete Structures subjected to seismic forces- code of practice IS 13920:1993, steel code
IS 800:2000.
The following literature are being followed:
1.For civil design
 Micro hydropower manual (Adam Hanry)
 Fundamental of hydropower(Sanjiv Baral)
 Manual on barrage and weirs(central board of irrigation )
 Guideline for design oh HPP (DOED)
2.For Hydraulics
 Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics (PN Modi & S.M Seth)
 Flow in open channel (K Subramanya)
 Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics (R.K Bansal)
3.For Hydrology
 Engineering Hydrology (S.Baral & K.N. Dulal)
4.For Geology
 Engineering and Hydrology (Tribhuvan University)
5.For Estimation
 Estimating and Costing (B.N Dutta)
6.For Surveying
 A Text Book of surveying and levelling (R.Agor)
For further required data we will concern with respective department & their web sites.
