B) Village Electrification Through Micro Hydro Projects:

Electrification is one of the most vital requirements for socio-economic development of rural areas of the state Uttarakhand. The linkages between renewable energy, sustainable livelihoods, and socio-economic development are well recognized. Micro hydro power projects in the remote rural areas of the state of Uttarakhand can provide energy services for sustainable development based on indigenous resources, with minimum expenditure, commitments, and exploitation of natural resource base.

UREDA has commissioned large number of MHPs in the remote area of state where the National or state grid cannot be extended. 44 MHPs of total capacity 4.29 MW has been installed in the remote villages of Uttarakhand till date and another 19 MHPs of total capacity 2.315 MW are under implementation.

The Details of Micro Hydel Project Constructed ( till August , 2013) are as under : -
