Nepal has added a new, highly significant transmission project to its power sector with the formal inauguration of the 400 kV Inaruwa Substation, Nepal's second largest substation. Although the construction of the 400 kV line from Inaruwa to Hetauda has faced several obstacles and is not yet complete, the operation of this substation is important to maintain power supply in the eastern part of the region. Once the 400 kV, which has recently made progress in construction, is completed, this substation will be a game changer. As NEA Managing Director Kul Man Ghising has publicly stated that his second term will be to strengthen and expand transmission and distribution, the inauguration of the Inaruwa Substation by Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda is of great significance.
