December 11: Middle Modi Hydropower Project in Modi Khola located at the border of Parbat and Kaski districts has started test production. 

The project with installed capacity of 18 megawatt is the first hydro power promoted by Chaudhary Group. 
Since the hydro power is already  connected to the national transmission line, generated power is evacuated to the national grid. 

“The hydro power will start producing power regularly after 15 days of test production”, said Chaudhary Group. 

The project’s power house is located at Kenga of Parbat’s Modi Rural Municipality while its embankment is situated at Birethanti of Annapurna Rural Municipality-3, Kaski. Water from Modi Khola has been flown down through 2,393 meters long tunnel for power generation.
