Technical FAQs 4

Should Nepal promote solar panels?

Promoting solar will naturally increase energy availability. Nepal has ample marginal land—terraces, slopes, unused hilly areas—not viable for agriculture, suitable for solar panels. Southern/eastern-facing rooftops also offer installation potential. The government should provide subsidies to encourage rooftop solar systems among homeowners.

What is rooftop solar in Nepal?

Rooftop solar system, a dominant rural commodity in Nepal, which caters to the lighting needs of over 600,000 off-grid rural households in the country, is now slowly gaining new admirers in the urban centres as well.

How many solar panels are installed in Nepal?

As of 2011, there were 206152 numbers of solar home systems with a total installed capacity of 5.6 MW, 155574 numbers with a small solar home system capacity of 0.737 MW, and 415 numbers of institutional solar PV with a capacity of 0.53 MW.

Should Nepal provide subsidies to encourage rooftop solar?

The government should provide subsidies to encourage rooftop solar systems among homeowners. In summary, Nepal has immense solar potential but is lagging behind in implementation. With strategic land use, subsidies, and policy support, solar can significantly enhance Nepal’s clean energy future.
