Kathmandu, March 19 (Xinhua) Nepal will import 70 megawatts of electricity from India, deputy-managing director of Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) said here Sunday. Nepal has a power exchange agreement with India for up to 150 megawatts, less than half of which has been exchanged so far, Uttar Kumar Shrestha, deputy managing director of state-run NEA, told reporters.
"Negotiations are in the final stages to import 70 megawatts of additional power from India," he said. The import of 20 megawatts from Bihar Electricity Board is expected to take place very soon, Shrestha noted, adding that import of another 50 megawatts will take place next year from West Bengal. Nepal is currently facing a major power deficit of 1.3 million units, making load shedding unavoidable for hours. The total demand of power is 8.2 million units in the country, he added.
