India's First River Kinetic Power Demonstration Project in Arunachal Pradesh

planned

Arunachal Pradesh is implementing India's first river kinetic energy demonstration project to generate power directly from river currents without major construction works. The project is supported by the Union Ministry of New and Renewable Energy and Innovation Norway, and involves a 500MW electricity generation capacity using environmentally sustainable and cost-effective technology. The project is a collaboration between the Centre for Earth Sciences & Himalayan Studies (CES&HS) under the Arunachal Pradesh government and Norway-based firm Tidal Sail AS, under the India-Norway Green Partnership.
