The Indian side is involved in the deal as Nepal and Bangladesh would use India&#8217;s transmission line to distribute electricity through its territory. <\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the agreement was scheduled for July 28, which was postponed due to political turmoil and a change of government in Bangladesh. <\/p>\n<p>According to sources at the Ministry of Energy, Water Resources and Irrigation, meetings at the energy secretary and joint-secretary levels were held in Kathmandu on Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for the agreement. <\/p>\n<p>The NEA plans to sell electricity to Bangladesh annually during the rainy season, from June 15 to November 15. In the beginning, Nepal will export 40 MW of electricity generated in the country to Bangladesh through India. The expected export is 144,000 megawatt-hours, and the NEA estimates earnings of USD 9.216 million over these five months, according to the media reports. <\/p>\n<p><!--\/include_growfast.cms?pagename=article&skipcss=1potime:2--><br \/>Electricity will be exported to Bangladesh via the Dhalkebar-Muzaffarpur 400 kV transmission line, with the metering point in Muzaffarpur.
