 Introduce strong community/ business concept  Build capacity of non technical aspects  Build capacity of technical Aspects  Identify partners  Monitoring & Evaluation  Grid connection of VHP

 Registration  Electricity Consumer society (ECS), business,  May not assess the technical feasibility at this stage  Develop code of practice  Community based HPP-Legislation, minutes of each meeting, quarterly/annual budget, bank account, receipt book  Private HPP – Tariff structure, ECS / Business owner(s) is the owner of the HPP

 Monitor and quality control  Environment, performances, reasonable tariff etc.  Avoid clashes for limited hydro potential  Electricity, drinking, irrigation, and other application  Obtain support from external parties  Donation, grant, loan  Approvals  Project design, civil construction, overhead lines (local government, Dept. of forestry /wild life, irrigation, archaeological)

 State/ district level project certification  Feasibility report including socio-economical, technical, environmental information  Other supporting documents  Private or community based project  Site inspection  Visually inspection the site  Interviews stake holders  Issue certificate  Technical, social, financially and environmentally comply  Out source external resource person Start implementation, money collection (community based project), bank loan

 Develop confidence of decision makers  Politicians, local government, financing institutes, equipment manufacturers  Study tours, awareness program, pilot project  Train facilitators  Book keeping, assessing feasibility study report  Financially evaluation, Environment impact assessment  Develop infrastructure  Develop/ translate literature, documentary

 Develop confidence of technology  Study tours, awareness program, pilot project  Train on appropriate technology  Site survey and potential analyse  System sizing (civil construction, penstock, turbine, Distribution lines)  Different types of turbines designing and manufacturing  Control technology

 Supporting information  Monthly rainfall data (10 years)  Topographical maps  Identify potential areas/ region  National grid expansion plan  Technology for automatic controlling  Electronic technology  Hydraulics technology  Technical infrastructure  Wheel balancing, turbine test bench

 Presently HP practitioner (manufacturers, developers, funder)  Financing institutes  Expert for the all aspects  Organization, Individuals, national and international level

 Non technical aspects  Transparent cash handling and record keeping  Beneficiaries energy usage  Community dispute (between ethnics, income level)  Technical aspects  Performance data recording  O & M practices  Third-party evaluation  Evaluate technical & non technical aspects

 Project initial investment increase 20% to 50% to go to high reliable and efficient system  Villagers may not be bear up such a increment  Available optimum potential tapping  In future energy demand  Financing support  For initial investment  Monitoring and supervision

 Facilitate and joint all sector  Technical, financing, social and environment etc  Subsidy for HP  Based on capacity, Nos. Of HH and project cost  Develop infrastructure  Testing and certification  Secondary data, potential and appropriate areas/region  Soft loan for micro financing institute  Encourage on off peak energy affectively use  Lighting and audio / video consume around 30% of generation  Battery charging, food processing, agricultural process

▪ SPP/Mini-grid Regulatory framework  Develop rules and regulations under electricity law that provide clarity for mini-grids/small power producers: ▪ licensing, ▪ tariffs, ▪ grid interconnection ▪ standardized power purchase agreements, and 13
