Electricity Consumption
Nepalese are fed up of saying that we are rich in hydro power and blah blah.We are never away from the problem of load shedding. Nepalese have givenchallenge to the world, regarding the fact that we faced up to twenty hoursof load shedding per day! I wonder if such thing takes place in other partof the world. Citizens here possess the full freedom to blame Government forthis! It's because of Government ignorance the problem is always on and on.If there is something wrong with the Hydro Power, Government should be ableto repair it fixing the time. If there is problem with the production ofelectricity, Government should fix new plants. And if in no way it ispossible to produce, it's Government who should be able to purchase theelectricity from neighboring countries.One major cause of electricity shortage is the difference amonghouses, factories.
A house in a village consumes maximum 250 watt if CFL isused, but a house in town uses it more than ten times of that in village. Insimple sense, 14 watt bulb in two rooms will be enough for the places inhilly region, which means maximum 50 watt will be enough. Japan's policyregarding electricity should be brought up in Nepal. Japan does not givefreely the electricity to people. The limited power must be used in over allactivities. Like if Nepal Government decides to give 500 watt per house,it's the problem of house to use five bulb of 100 watt, or 2 bulb of 8 watt,fan and other electricity consuming sources. This idea can really lessen thedifferences and make every citizens aware about the consumption. This ideaprobably can be best when compared to load shedding.
Instead of spendinghuge amounts in corruption in the name of fixing plants, if governmentspends in this, it can really work out. An example can be taken from my homeitself. We bought a small Indian inverter at Rs 3200. It's maximum outputis that it can give 33 watt of electricity for 4 hours after charging it for8 hours. Now, when we had the load shedding of 16 hours, during the night ithad to be used for six hours, and it was not sure when the line comes tomake it charged. So we placed two CFL of 8 watt, and 5 watt which used tolight for something more than 15 hours in one charge.
Place where I live ishot, so we always used to face shortage of fan. But the capacity exceeds forthat. However, we can use it upto 33 watt to it's fullest, let that be forcharging my cell phone or other small purposes. The example I provided of myhome is just to show how electricity should be supplied in order to lessesenit's fear of shortage. It's true that we are going through the shortage, sowhy can't we raise the voice for such alternatives instead of shouting 'NoLoadshedding!' which is impossible for the country
