This project brings together partners from Norway and Nepal to strengthen skills and practices in clean energy and climate adaptation. It focuses on hydropower development and how to prevent erosion, flooding and landslides, which are growing challenges in both countries. Participants will share knowledge on sustainable design, site management, and flood protection. They will also explore how to modernise older hydropower plants and adapt to local conditions in different markets. The project builds engineering capacity in both countries and supports the transition to renewable energy, contributing to climate goals and long-term energy security.
