BYS (Balaju Yantra Shala) manufactured cross-flow turbine used to be exported in countries such as India, Sri Lanka and Bhutan. I am not sure about now but it used to cost approx Rs.120,000/K. Watt for the generation of electricity from micro hydro projects ( around 2000). I am wondering if anyone knows Akkal Man Nakarmi, I have visited his small workshop where he manufactures Pelton Turbine and assembles a complete unit of micro hydro electric power generator. There are several other genuine individuals devoted to the development of remote areas, I wonder how are they being affected by the conflict in Nepal. I hope with little research if we people living abroad are interested we can contribute financially in small projects for the industrial development of remote villages in Nepal. Wish I can turn back the clock and have Nepal without Maoist issue.
