Compliance Report is required from the NABL accredited Laboratories.
PROJECT DETAILS
Uttarakhand Power Sector Investment Program (UPSIP),
supported by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) under the multi
tranche financing facility approved on 30 March 2006, is part of the
Investment Program for 20062012, whose goal is to increase power
capacity to meet demand in the state and achieve a year-round
exportable surplus by 2010. New small hydropower plants (SHPPs) will
provide additional clean power to local grids in rural areas and meet
about one third of the projected nonindustrial power demand in the
state at the time of commissioning. Under this construction of new Small
Hydro projects were proposed in district Rudraprayag namely
Madhyamaheswar, KaligangaI and Kaliganga II SHP and work started in
the year 2007. On June 17, 2013 due to unprecedented floods in
Mandakini and Kali rivers project site were affected drastically and most
of the components were washed away. Project works were started again
in January 2016.
