The vision of the Renewable Energy Journey is not a mere idea, but a deep commitment and belief to contribute to the Renewable Energy sector of Nepal which stimulated the founders of the Company to venture into the sector. With fossil fuel resources getting depleted very fast, we believe that Renewable Energy is the way to go in the future.

Urja, has initiated its Renewable Energy Journey with dedication for contribution towards hydropower development in the country by envisioning harnessing of 1 GW (1000 MW) hydropower potential in the country by 2030 AD, coherent with the plan and policy of the Government of Nepal. This targeted cumulative energy capacity has been approached through one or several projects being developed through multiple hydropower development companies operating under the umbrella concept of Urja. All projects have been meticulously chosen to complement the company’s strategy of Cascade and Corridor Vision with territorial undertaking allowing our teams to produce synergic performances and optimal usage of the resources.

The Renewal Energy journey is our passion and we look into each new project as an opportunity to acquire new knowledge and insights. We ensure reflection of such invaluable experiences in the implementation of the new undertaken projects, made possible by very competent and confident core team of professionals, who have extensive knowledge and experience in the sector, backing us up to ensure that our projects are executed efficiently and on time.
