CHINESE TEAM COMING FOR TALKS ON WEST SETI
Kathmandu, 26 Feb.: A three-member team from China Three Gorges Corporation (CTGC) is arriving in Nepal on Sunday to discuss investment possibilities in the 750-MW West Seti Hydro Electricity Project (WSHEP), The Kathmandu Post reports.
The state-owned CTGC is China’s largest hydropower developer, better known as the company that constructed the Three Gorges Dam, the world’s largest power station in terms of the installed capacity (20,300 MW).
Energy Minister Post Bahadur Bogati on Saturday said the Chinese team would hold a meeting with a technical team from Nepal formed to discuss the matter.
According to Energy Ministry sources, CTGC has proposed that it would help the government get soft loans from the Exim Bank of China. The Exim Bank had earlier proposed to offer soft and commercial loans worth $1.6 billion, but the Nepal government had proposed the Chinese side to provide the entire amount in concessional loans.
The Nepal government had made a formal request to the Chinese government for financing the West Seti project during the 60-member Chinese delegation’s visit to Nepal last year. The delegation was led by Zhou Yongkang, a powerful member of the Standing Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CPC). In response, the Chinese side had asked Nepal to send the Detailed Project Report of the project to China.
Earlier this year, CTGC had written to the Prime Minister’s Office expressing its interest to invest in the West Seti Project.
