Butwal Power Company Ltd. has received the survey license for the 7 MW Jhimruk on-grid solar project. The project will generate electricity using solar energy in an area of 11.7 bigha land in Pyuthan District, and the generated electricity will be fed into the national grid at the Lamahi substation. Based on the detailed field assessment and energy analysis carried out, this site has been found suitable for setting up solar PV projects. The power generated by the solar plant will be initially sent to Jhirmuk hydropower's switchyard (distance of 1.51 km) through a 33 kV line and then evacuated to Lamahi substation through existing 132 kV transmission line. The Initial Environmental Examination Report has been completed and is in the final stage of approval from concerned authorities.
