Environment Nepal is working on urban management and development and water conservations. Environment Nepal has a year long experience working in conserving the water resources like ground water, well, lakes, falls, rivers and rain-water through creating awareness to the community people. At the mean time, it conducts numbers of trainings to conserve these water resources getting destroyed from natural disasters. Although most of our work is carried out in rural areas, it is gradually trying to extend the services for the rapidly expanding semi urban poor. Environment Nepal continues to increase its focus on innovative and low cost alternative technologies, approaches as well as learning around water and sanitation such as Fog Water Collection, Rain Water Harvesting.
Nepal has enormous and low-cost solar energy resources. The solar potential in Nepal is 50,000 terawatt-hours per year, which is 100 times larger than Nepal's hydro resource and 7,000 times larger than Nepal's current electricity consumption. Solar can easily meet all future energy needs in Nepal.
