Nepal fights power cuts with renewable energy

Touted as the country's biggest, a hybrid power generation system which uses solar and wind energy has been inaugurated in western Nepal to help residents facing acute shortage of electricity. 
Environment Minister Hem Raj Tated inaugurated the wind-solar energy centre at Hurhure Danda area of Nawalparasi district which will benefit 46 families living there.  
With this, Nepal has become the first country to benefit from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) initiative of encouraging clean and renewable energy. 

"Now, locals of Hurhure Danda can watch television and use computers," Narayan Prasad Chaulagain, Executive Director of Alternative Energy Promotion Board (AEPB), said.
