Panchakanya Mai Hydropower Limited has officially restarted electricity production at its 9.98 MW Upper Mai hydropower project after completing repair work.
Project Back in Operation
The company confirmed that the 9.98 MW capacity Upper Mai hydropower project is now running again. It started generating power once more on Ashoj 16 at 3:02 PM. The team working there ensured that everything was fixed before turning the plant back on.
Reason for Shutdown
Electricity production was stopped suddenly on Bhadra 21 at 6:10 PM. This happened because of a water leakage issue in the expansion joint of the project. To fix this problem, the company had to empty the tunnel completely. The plant remained closed while the workers did the repairs, and now that the expansion joint is fixed, the plant has started the production again.
