Himal Hydro is a leading construction company of Nepal serving key public and private sector clients in the fields of Hydropower, Tunnelling, Transmission Line, Ropeways, Water & Wastewater Management and General Construction. Its major shareholders are Government of Nepal (11%), United Mission to Nepal (11%) and Nepal Jalabidyut Prabardhan Tatha Bikas Ltd. (NJPB) (78%).

A small hydropower project called Tinau Hydel with a capacity of 1 MW incorporating 2.4 km tunnels and the first underground powerhouse in Nepal was constructed during late 1960's to late 1970's. Himal Hydro was born in 1978 from the construction team that built this project.

Construction of small and medium sized projects such as Tinau Hydropower Project (1 MW), Tatopani Small Hydel Project (2 MW), Andhikhola Hydel & Rural Electrification Project (5.1 MW), Jhimruk Hydro-Electric & Rural Electrification Project (12 MW) and Sunkoshi Small Hydropower Project (2.6 MW) (which uses glass reinforced pipe for the first time in the country) have been completed by Himal Hydro. Himal Hydro in joint venture with Statkraft Anlegg (NCC International AS, Norway) completed construction of Khimti I Hydropower Project (60 MW) and underground works of Modi Hydroelectric Project (14 MW).

Himal Hydro has successfully completed design and construction works of Drainage and Wastewater Management Project in Hetauda Industrial District and undertaking operation and maintenance works of the project. Himal Hydro has successfully completed construction of various part of underground works of Middle Marsyangdi Hydroelectric Project (70 MW) and all civil works of Khudi Hydropower Project (4 MW).

Although Himal Hydro's core business area is that of a construction contractor it is also trying to come up as a developer of hydropower projects. With this aim it has acquired licenses for few projects and carrying out detailed feasibility and design works of these projects. Himal Hydro has got its own in house survey, design and development department to carry out these jobs.

A core of highly skilled and experienced engineers, overseers, foremen, mechanics, electricians and administrative personnel, in addition to a huge fleet of construction equipment are the main strength of the company. Emphasis is given to the training, efficient work methodologies and high ethical standards in all respects to the works.

Himal Hydro is a registered Class A Contractor, and is a member of the Contractors' Association of Nepal. It is also an affiliate member of the International Tunnelling Association.

For over 25 years, we have focused on one thing: VALUE. This is not just a buzzword, but a vision that drives our organisation. It is our intention to offer superior value to our clients in every aspect of the construction in terms of Time, Cost and overall Quality.
