- Lighting mountain communities in Nepal through one simple solution
Access to clean and affordable modern energy is critical for social and economic development. Worldwide, about 1.5 billion have no access to electricity, and 1 billion more have access only to unreliable electricity networks.
In the Himalayan country, Nepal, the towering mountains are a formidable obstacle to the people who need modern energy. Only 20 percent of the mountain villages have access to electricity.
Since 1996, UNDP, its partners and the Government of Nepal have worked together with local communities to provide energy to remote areas through one clean, simple and plentiful means: water. Nearly 400 micro-hydro power plants have been built bringing energy to roughly half a million people.
Local communities themselves dig the channels to divert the water that powers the small plants. They also provide the labor to install the power lines and the light.
"Micro-hydro was introduced in Nepal before, but the difference UNDP made was to put community people at the center of the project so that they are the driver to introduce this technology then also maintain and then have full ownership," says Shoko Nodo, UNDP Country Director in Nepal.
Through these small hydro plants, big changes are happening. Clinics, schools, radio stations, businesses are all flourishing where once there was darkness and no electricity.
This five-minute movie on the micro-hydro power plants of Nepal is a sneak preview of a longer documentary that will air on Discovery Channel in 2013.
Being an electrical engineer in Nepal is so proud and happiest feeling for me🇳🇵
My friend for you guys whats the cost of making this Hydro Projects and do you have some form of material list that could assist our communities.
I also want to be EE
I love beautiful hydropower plant of Nepal. A civil engineer from Việt Nam 🇻🇳.
Nepali people are able and intelligence people God bless the people of Nepal
i am going to do bachelors in hydropower engineering from USA.i love this study.i will come back to nepal to produce electricity and hopefully we will sell electricity to India and other countries.
Chinglang Konyak First of all, there’s not a single country on this planet which helps the other one just out of sympathy! There’s always a hidden plan whether it be long term or short term. During the blockade caused by India, Nepalese government went ahead and bought gasoline products from China which resulted in utter disagreements from Indian authorities claiming it was against the trade treaty we had. See? It’s not really help to be honest. As for India neglecting northeast India, there’s always uneven development and priorities in all countries specially developing countries. So calm down and be respectful. Indians like yourself are the reasons why many Nepalese hate Indians
Sohil Paudel Mao forces seem to have done a good job of propaganda to make it look like India blocked your supplies. Their goal was to let down the India supporting mahadesis which of course will not be tolerated. Nepals main enemy are your own politicians, no need to blame anyone else.
Beautiful n electrified Nepal, love from India.
Well done my Nepali brothers and sisters…. Lots of love from India
People who are relating Swastika sign to Nazi get your knowledge broaden. Swastika is symbol for wellbeing and auspicious in Hinduism and can be seen throughout.It is used for to mark the opening pages of account books, doors and thresholds, later Germany used it and popular known as Nazi sign,but it's one of the oldest symbol humankind trace it.
I just thought it meant good fortune.
"get you knowledge broaden" get you knowledge broadened
What does it have to do with hydro power in Nepal?
@@Mike-kr5dn Lol i was about to write same.😂😂
Science and technologies for easier life ! Salute for the UNDP
Cheers to Nepal from India.
Continue helping Nepal!!
Nepal is a beautiful country.
#Love from India
Desh heun mera swadeshbheun mera,,,this made me remember swadesh filim, goodwork nepal greetings from india
Wow ..what a nice n heart touching video..thanks to #UNDP..these kind of projects should run through all over parts of our country....feels proud to b NEPALI..
Kosis gare ke hunna ra..
LAU NA AABA TA KEI GARUM..
What a great video! Love it!
Great bottom up approach to sustainable development
People who have seen can Swadesh can relate with this.
Way to go Nepal
Great job UNDP :)
Watching this video, teaches me to be more grateful and appreciate everything better in my life :)
such a great work, small initiative lije these are, what required in most dark landlocked villages.. around the world. Feeling very satisfied by seeing their smiles..
thank you for uploading this video
As a student at University of Toronto my group and I did a research project on micro-hydro in Nepal and presented it in a global-energy class. Our professor and classmates were pretty impressed by the innovation of the project.
it's been 11years since you have commented on this day, can you share what was your study background and a quick update on how your life going now a days?
All said & done, this is a great place to get ideas. And ideas are important.
This is epic!
Awesome. Go Nepal go. India is with you on any need.
Thank you very much. We would always need India's help and support. We are also ready to help our great neighbor whenever needed.
EVERYTHING INDIAN your county always trying to control this small beautiful country not let them to be indipendant.
We cannot deny that India is not just trying to have a control over Nepal, but it is actually doing it. There had been issues lately and in the past regarding the border patrol department of India changing the position of the border stones that divide the two countries. There has also been incidents where some innocent and patriotic protesters of Nepal being shot dead. Also, the political arena of Nepal is largely controlled by India resulting in the Nepalese being misrepresented in the world. However, these are not the greatest issues that Nepal faces. In my opinion, the people of Nepal must change and they must stop choosing the worst representatives. If we can, we must be able to identify the potential that new Nepal has as far as not being misrepresented and not ruining foreign relations is concerned. It is not that we do not have the courage to live by ourselves, but it is always good to have good friends all around the world who will help us transform ourselves. And by the way, we were always independent from foreign domination, and many have given their lives to save this nation,so I think that we are going to be independent in the future also.
india eats some small independent Country,,,
Now try to Bangladesh, Nepal and other country in asia...
@@aliaimon3661 By the way, China is helping now Nepal far more than India with the project of railway from Thibet and opening the right to trade so Nepal can now use Chinese harbours . SO it's prbably the end of Indian 's dreams to control this country:-)
Thanks for video 👍👍👍
Still some places are under the dark in nepal but hope we can overcome this situation soon. Thanks for everyone who helped to generate electricty in rural area.
a pace to a better livelihood and infrastructures bravo.
Nepal is heaven ...
Great work 👍
Well done Napal Keep it up !!! - Sri Lanka
What a beautiful country
स्वयंपुर्ण ग्राम ही भारत की असली प्रगती
We have to do lots of thing from these god gifted rivers and imrove our life standard.
good for nepal. we in the west cant even imagine a world without pwr
Very good work sir. And all villages problem in this like.
Awesome project....
very great hope this kind of free energy source could give more free energy to villagers who need most of electricity..
Awesome!
wau....great idea
at 3:06 one with black kurtha is manjari shrestha, she was class 12 in peoples campus paknajol, when i was 11 class. very diligent person.
Nepal can now sell bottled water to India since they have lots water.
oh please no the plastic bottles gonna pollute nepal, look at indonesia
Now nepal sells the electricity what a milestone they have achieved
Good news, happy to know it.
Wery Good ! ! ! :)
Boa iniciativa energia para todos
clean energy for real! they started very well. i am envious my place run on fossil.
How has only 2 people replied?
This vid has been out for 7 years!
good work,
This was very common in the US starting with Roosevelt new deal social projects... sadly most have been torn down and electric generation and distribution centralized in mega projects... usually burning fossil fuels
great work
Support the right to repair movement. Cheap hydro-electricity is no reason to ignore cheap solar and battery, become a large clean energy exporter.
Congratulations 🎊🎇🎉🎈 Frome pakistan
Amazing
GOOD JOB AAGE BADO
Soon I am going to rock Nepal with my hydropower skills
please
Yet another pure society bites the global market dust. You guys had a great run. R.I.P.
Ah yes, living in poverty, the "pure" society. Sure lol.
If you're so keen on the pure society you should throw away all of your possession before living in a mud hut in the wilds.
Excellent
We are from Kaptel, Tedim Tsp, Chin, State, Myamar. The dam of our village was built by villager and sponsered by the immigrants of our villager from foreign countries. It was built since 2008 and finished in 2015. But nowadays the generator cannot fill the needs of ours consumptions. This is because there are leaking in the dam and. Some technical features are not accessible for local power plant employees. We need your advice to consult and maintain or rebuild the dam or the power plant. We hope you read our letter and response. My English writing is bad. Sorry
This was in my assessment task, and the whole class couldn't get what the guy was saying at 2:18. Everyone thought he said the turbine was covered in vinegar, because of the accent, and we didn't know the video was on CZcams. So I went and found it and I proved them all wrong.
this is much better than big dams for nepal since Nepal very prone to earthquakes.
This is my geography hw so good job ig
I lov Nepal
Concentrated sunlight can pump water up to create small clean water dam for hydropower.
"When Bulbs clicks, There is Smile in people's face", Like that..
good idea
Good job
4:55 that guy on the right xD
Reforitor 😂😂
This is an amazing idea could have been done decades ago what a shame what a blessing.
Whole video is so good but
4:56 the most right side guy 😂😂
muito interessante
Poverty is man-made..hope for more power plant to build
HS Dynamic Energy can offer this kind of turgo turbine system with competitive price.
good idea s neoal
👌👌👌👌
Cool
To get energy out of water causes an incredible amount of effort.in any case (if it's micro or big solutions)!! I could not believe what I saw in this video. Why not using sun energy in different ways, biogas and and and. Is it a must that everything the UN does had to be costly?
Basically, we depend on most of the things with total ignorance, whereas there is even more chances of even a slighter state of growth in these area. Usually, they live in a complex situation everytime. Therefore, they just needed a slight push to reach a certain level of survival by themself and creat/generate new creative ideas and a new change not just for the sake of one but the whole community, the whole country.
I really need one of this in my district. we did have one long time ago, almost 30 yrs.. can some help me with ideas, anything to start up the plant again. the grids, houses, dams etc are still there but in pretty bad condition. with your help I can put things together and get help, funds and build this again. otherwise, your video has boosted me, that I am not alone.
Simon phama email me at info@shubhautomation.com. I m developing same thing
We Bangladesh tersested Ur electricity.
From Bangladesh 🇧🇩
THIS IS THE ONLY DEMOCRATIC SOLUTION!!!
4:57 The guy on the right corner😂😂
Reminded me of Ajay Devgan! Hahaha
Nice
Why can't United Nations join hands with Indian NGOs and build this kind of micro hydro electric generation systems?
there is no loadshedding in nepal nowadays
Just hope they dont forget the old ways
💐💐💐💐💐💐
all nepal uae siphon and siphon experiment gives tremendous energy and inverted siphon gives extra energy
nice
it's like movie swades but at large scale.
Good luck nepal.. ask more help from Indian official.. its our duty to help you get right tech..
I don't think it's India's duty.. If any country helps another it's because of Geo political dominance or any other reason of political favour.. India has a duty towards it's own citizens
We are a hydro turbine manufacturer in China, good quality and competition price, ISO and TUV certified
I felt sorry for the them when "the silence replaced with evening news casts" was mentioned. Only they will miss the serenity of silence and darkness. The next generation won't even know that it existed.
Indian government must help our real friend nepal. He is our relative and we have roti-beti relationship. Our government must protect nepal from china. We must give them every kind of help for there development.
Second largest water resource in the world but still lack of electricity. Corruption is an amazing thing😂😂😂
where di you live? it sounds familiar
sounds like india or pakistan or bangladesh
You don't know how hard it is to have no electricity for around 18 hours!
Happily not anymore ☺
How can an individual get hands-on involved to help with these types of projects, particularly micro hydro?
Good
We have fossil Oli we need to mine it..
Is there places out there where they dont have the water to use to produce electricity.
This is a letter to the UN:
Dear UN:
Could you please find solutions to solve the electricity problems in Syria??
The same you did in Nepal?
I'm not living in Syria so don't ask how did you talk to us.. just so you could help my family in Syria communicate with me..
Thanks a lot
Mark Wright
You are true ........... but since the war had started to disappear maybe the UN could do somesink
Thanks for your replay
Greetings from Canada :3
Thomas Mc Loughlin
No clue
I might end my self up on Russia someday
I am in the west
I’m in Canada
large hydro can have major environmental problems. keeping vaxceen cool has major conequences. If you now have light at night you can read a text book education can now accelerate. great news
Most importantly its a clean Energy.Bangladesh should import hydro energy from Nepal.Because Nepal don't these huge power
