At 24 MW, Trishuli Hydroelectric Power Plant Nepal is below the median hydro plant in Nepal (45 MW). Technically it is described as run-of-river. Its current lifecycle status is “Construction” — so it is not yet, or no longer, generating at full output. Hydropower converts the energy of falling or flowing water into electricity; output depends on rainfall and reservoir level, and large dams also provide grid balancing and storage.
