SJVN's Arun-3 Hydro Electric Project in Nepal, with a capacity of 900 MW, is anticipated to commence power generation by 2025, according to the Chairman and Managing Director, Sushil Sharma. Nearly three-fourths of the project has been completed, with significant progress made in construction. The last blast for the completion of the 11.8 km long head race tunnel was triggered by Nepal Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal in Sankhuwasabha district. SJVN is actively engaged in the construction of this multi-crore project. Over 74% of the project has been completed, with remaining works proceeding rapidly. Once operational, the project is expected to generate 3924 million units of electricity annually.
