The research also estimated total investment necessary to
construct this micro hydro plant and followed by investment
analysis using net-present-value tool. Typical works involved
in constructing micro hydro plant is civil works, mechanical
and electrical works, and construction of distribution network
to deliver power to villagers. The costing of all work
components is done using secondary data available from past
micro hydro projects or existing plant and uses interpolation to
estimate costs of the proposed plant based on size or
dimension
