Introducing the Upper Kalangagad Hydroelectric Project, nestled amidst the serene landscapes of Sunkuda and Khiratadi VDCs in Nepal’s picturesque Bajhang district. Since its inception in 2009 under the stewardship of Sanigad Hydro Limited, this endeavor has been dedicated to harnessing the power of renewable hydro energy to meet the nation’s burgeoning needs. Located along the right bank of the Kalanga River in the Seti zone of the Far-Western Region, the project leverages the river’s flow, partly sustained by snowmelt, making a significant contribution to Nepal’s sustainable energy landscape.

The 38.46MW Upper Kalanga Gad Hydroelectric Project is a transformative initiative underway in Bajhang, Nepal. Spearheaded by Sanigad Hydro Limited. The project aims to harness the abundant hydroelectric potential of the region’s natural resources.

Upper Kalanga Gad Hydroelectric Project is a Run-of-River (RoR) type project strategically located between Girau and Batthi Villages of Dahabagar Village Development Committees (VDC) and Khiratadi VDC, Bajhang District of Nepal. The project area encompasses a diverse range of terrain, from rugged mountains to lush valleys, offering a promising backdrop for sustainable energy endeavors.

The project’s scope extends beyond mere infrastructure development, encompassing environmental stewardship, community engagement, and technological innovation. Through meticulous planning and execution, UKHEP endeavors to not only meet the region’s energy needs but also contribute to socio-economic development and environmental sustainability.

With the successful completion of construction and the initiation of energy generation, UKHEP embodies the pinnacle of achievement in Bajhang, Nepal. Its operational status not only fulfills the region’s energy demands but also heralds a new era of sustainable development and prosperity. The Upper Kalanga Gad Hydroelectric Project stands as a beacon of progress, illuminating a path towards a brighter future for all.
