With an estimated cost of over $1.5 billion, the Arun 3 Hydroelectric Project stands as a testament to Nepal's commitment to sustainable energy development.

Key stakeholders, including the Nepal Electricity Authority and project developers, remain steadfast in their commitment to ensuring the timely completion and seamless operation of the Arun 3 hydroelectric plant. As Nepal looks ahead to a future powered by clean and renewable energy sources, the Arun 3 project stands as a beacon of hope and progress, illuminating the path towards a more sustainable and prosperous tomorrow.
