Gham Power – Powering Datahub Nepal’s data centre with solar energy (Nepal)
Summary
A case study detailing the installation of an 83.16 kWp rooftop solar PV system by Gham Power for Datahub Nepal's data centre in Tilottama, Butwal, to reduce reliance on diesel generators and an unreliable grid.
Key insights
- Datahub Nepal installed an 83.16 kWp rooftop solar PV system, designed and implemented by Gham Power within one month, to replace a reliance on diesel generators and NEA utility power which were characterized by voltage fluctuations and frequent power cuts.
- The solar installation is projected to displace 38 kiloliters of diesel and reduce carbon emissions by 220 tonnes over a 25-year period, while providing a 68.11% reduction in daytime electricity costs for the facility.
- The project was supported by the Alternative Energy Promotion Centre (AEPC), the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), and the Nepal Renewable Energy Programme (NREP).
