本文概述了尼泊尔100年的水力发电历史。文中强调了尼泊尔水电的重要性，并详细分析了该国为发展水电必须考虑的主要问题。它是唯一可用于发电的资源，无论是大型出口项目还是全国几乎任何地区的小型村庄微型电网项目。还叙述了主要由于河流流量的季节性波动而引起的需求和供应波动的挑战。对河流流量趋势的分析表明，河流流量的影响必须逐条分析，因为全国的趋势并不一致。还讨论了社会和组织问题及其与该国政治稳定的关系。
This paper provides an overview of a 100 year history of hydropower in Nepal. The importance of hydropower in Nepal is highlighted and major issues that the country has to consider for the development of hydropower have been analysed in detail. It is the only resource available to generate electricity, both for large export projects and small village mini grid projects in almost any part of the country. The challenges of demand and supply fluctuations, mainly due to the seasonal fluctuation of river discharges, are also described. An analysis of river flow trends shows that the impact of river flow has to be analysed river by river, as the trends are not consistent throughout the country. The social and organisational issues and their relationship with the political stability in the country have also been discussed.
