Energy Sector Chhukha Tail Race Chhukha Tail Race 20.41 Although the Chhukha Hydel Plant was originally designed to have an installed capacity of 336 MW, it can be operated only to a maximum of 320 MW because the water level in the tail race tunnel reaches above the maximum designed level. In practice, the generation has been restricted to 310 MW for safety reason. The construction of an additional tail race tunnel would enable the Chhukha Hydel Corporation to generate power at the rated capacity. The construction will take 2 and a half years and the maximum additional revenue per annum at Nu 0.27 per kwh will be Nu 24.93 m. Bunakha Reservoir SchemeBunakha Reservoir Scheme 20.42 This scheme is intended to build extra storage capacity for additional power generation during lean months to increase peaking capacity in Chhukha Hydro Power Station. Construction of a 140 m dam at Bunakha is considered feasible. However, it will take 2 years to complete hydrological investigation and another 3 to 4 years for construction phase. The reservoir if constructed is expected to generate an extra 185 Mu of energy per year and rise the Chhukha power revenue by about Nu 50 m at Nu. 0.27 per kWh. Chhukha II and Chhukha IIIChhukha II and Chhukha III 20.43 Investigations for two large projects downstream from Chhukha will be completed in the early part of 7FYP. One of them will be a 1000 MW run of the river scheme with a diversion structure below Mebri and an underground power house below Tala. The other located near the border will have a 200 m high dam with a surface power station with an installed capacity of 600 MW. Regardless of which scheme is selected for implementation, project implementation will start only at the closing years of 7FYP and commissioned in the 8FYP. Rural ElectrificationRural Electrification 20.44 The Plan provides for the expansion of rural electrification during the 7FYP. The existing network will be extended into rural areas wherever there is excess power. However, much of the rural electrification programmes will depend firstly on the execution of generation projects and secondly on the installation of high voltage transmission lines to which low voltage subtransmission and distribution lines can be connected. Transmission lines and associated substations, subtransmission and distribution linesTransmission lines and associated substations, subtransmission and distribution lines 20.45 High voltage transmission and associated substations are estimated to cost about Nu 1030 m. This cost includes the installation cost of the Eastern region grid, Central region grid, Simtokha-Basachu line and Basachu- Geylegphug line. The Subtransmission and distribution programme covers the establishment of low-voltage networks in the urban areas. A provision has been kept for the expansion of townships as well as emergence of new townships and realignments of lines where new townships are likely. Power Master Plan and Hydrology InvestigationsPower Master Plan and Hydrology Investigations 20.46 The formulation of Power Master Plan was started in 1990 and will be completed by 1993. It will guide the future actions in the power sector. The Master Plan will produce a ranked list of potential hydro-power project sites. These sites have to be investigated in detail for investment decisions. In addition to investigation for power projects, hydrological investigation will include collection and dissemination of hydrological and meteorological data, both for use by the Department of Power and other agencies. Unspecified Power SchemesUnspecified Power Schemes 20.47 Unspecified Power Schemes refers to three types of expenditure: (1) projects which are not yet firm and further details needs to be worked out; (2) expenditure on recommissioning of existing power plants; and (3) solar energy projects, wind and biogas energy projects and minihydro plants ( such as the proposed Chhalori mini hydel project in pema Gatshel and Dongdichu mini hydel project in Tashi Yangtsi. Expenditure items on recommissioning 8
Energy Sector items will include purchase of new electro-mechanical parts; repair and modification of water conducting system; repair of turbine nozzles, blades and insulation of alternator and choke windings; improvement of control panel, switchgear and switchyard and manufacturer's consultancy service. Power plants which require major recommissioning works are: (1) Gidakom Hydel Station (1250 kW) (2) Paro Hydel Power House (400 kW) (3) Wangdi Hydel Power House (300 kW) (4) Chhenary Power House (750 kW) (5) Khalanzi Power House (390 kW) (6) Nagu Hydel Power House (50 kW) (7) Lhuntshi Power House (20 kW) (8) Thimphu Power House (360 kW) 9
