Comprehensive options assessment for electricity sector in Nepal : dialogue on dams and development in Nepal
The Comprehensive Options Assessment for Electricity Sector in Nepal analyzes the demand and supply scenario of electricity, water resources policies, environmental concerns of funding agencies, and the comprehensive options assessment in relation to different guidelines. The report argues that not all suggestions made by the World Commission on Dams can be implemented by Nepal at once but they should be taken positively and included gradually in the system. Nevertheless, in the Nepalese context, the report recommends a three-tier approach as suggested by the Geneva workshop in 2003 for comprehensive options assessment.
