Industrialization and urbanization initied by fossil fuel use and carbon emission has already reached to it's climax and everyone is aware now that it's only renewable energy that can protect this planet from upcoming crisis.The most common examples include wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydropower.These days every homes have a biogas plant connected to toilets which in turn is used to produce gas and To light our house and cook food.Geothermal energy is not much in use in our country.but we do have wind energy plants in area like kagbeni mustang where wind blows with high speed.There are tremendous possibilities of employing wind energy to convert to other form of energy in such high altitude.In recent years we have most progressed in terms of solar power and hydroelectric power.Nepal alone has capacity of producing 83,000MW of electricity but so far we are able to produce almost 1000MW only including project under construction.But it's indeed a good news that we don't have electric power outrage(no loadshedding/power cut off)these days.even during the deepawali in big cities when we light must electric lights we don't have that problem anymore.We are kinda self realiant in terms of electric power or hydropower and we do have dream of exporting it aboard.Talking about solar power it has become the electric power for remote village of Nepal where we don't have electric supply.Every roof has solar power in the mountains of Nepal.It is the best source of energy.Even in the big cities today in the street lights we have solar panels fixed for the lighting purpose.In our home particularly,we have both solar and electric power and for cooking we prefer electric oven compared to gas stove. But we still use the vehicles that run on Fossil fuels so we need electric power generated buses and e-riksha which are eco-friendly and energy efficient. We can see e-riksha in terai belt but we rarely see them in the hills because of the topography,.so we need to design ones with strong engines.We need to encourage youths on the book and corner of the country which come up with innovative ideas that replace the Fossil fuels. We also should practically teach students in school level about the importance not only limit to theory based knowledge. But these I can see some climate politics going on in the world level too.Rich nations used fossil fuels to accelerate their economics but now they are trying to preach under developing and developing nations not to use fossil fuels just because they fear that one day they may reacheconomic development and it may have also been done to escalate the price of fossil fuels.They reached their peak with use of fossil fuels to reach the development and now blaming others Agricultural nations that Agriculture contributes to this and that percentage of carbon emission. So all need to stay alert on this.There is politics going on around for finishing the budget isolated for climate change no such much progress can be seen.Blaming everything for just use of non renewable energy is the source of the climate change is also not right . We all should stay alert and work on it.Our small effort can make a big difference so we should keep inspiring and trying from our own level. On a nut Shell there is no alternative to the renewable energy to protect our planet to reduce toxic emission and hand a fresh earth to our off springs.

Hi Dibya
Good to see some progress and high potential of renewable energy in Nepal. As far as I know there are many mountains with high altitude in Nepal, so installation of solar panels might bring huge benefits to isolated houses.
There can be some political discussions around renewable energy, but one sure thing is that collective actions of as many groups are necessary for actual stopping of climate change.
I hope the bright future of Nepal in implementation of renewable energy along with environmentally well educated youths.
Thank you for the great report.
Keep up the good work.

Hey Dibya!
This is your mentor Lisa.
I think you are making such an amazing point here,
yes definitely no matter what the topic is,
as long as it has something to do with human society there will always be politics going around.
Energy politics is definitely a virtual issue that is happening in our world right now and it is indeed true that there are major culprits for the climate catastrophe and the pollution of today. History proves this.
Hence, it would be unjust for these beneficiaries of the fossil fuel that have risked our planet for their own interest to burden other developing nations that have just started to run for its development with the same responsibilities and same obligations for what's happening in our world right now. That is why in most of the major international agreements and conventions, 'common but differentiated responsibilities' are clearly stated to make sure the accountability of the environmental harms. Moreover, these international promises often include that the developed states should support and help the developing nations not only financially but also with the advanced technologies so that they can pursue sustainable development in the way that least damages the environment. However, it is true that this is often not realized in reality and that's why we have to consider politic aspects regarding the discourses on renewable energy, environmental pollution, and climate issues.
I hope that others have time to think about this side of the agenda to better understand the international actions and movements towards renewable energy.
Thank you so much Dibya for bringing up such an important topic:)
I will look forward to your next article as well.
