Background
Laos is one of the poorest countries in Asia, although growth and prosperity is
now increasing in partly hydropower projects. In the 1970-80s the Lao government

and financial cost, Nam Theun 2 had created a shallow reservoir retained by the 39-
m high Nakai Dam. Generation takes place at the Power Station, 350m below the
activities. However, the idea of using water from the Nam Theun River to generate
devoted to environmental features. The Nakai Dam was equipped with a multi-level
riparian release valve to ensure healthy water flows down the Nam Theun River all
year round.
The water used by the station turbines enters a Regulating Pond that enables
steady flows to be released in the Xe Bang FaiRiver through a Regulating Dam and
via a 27-Km long Downstream Channel that optimizes water quality and offers
crossing and a siphon that carry the water over and under natural rivers to avoid
altering their ecology. Feather downstream, a unique Aeration Weir increase the
oxygen content of the water before the flow rejoins the local river system.
All water bodies in the project area are constantly monitored by the Nam
remains within international guidelines, for the good of local population and
is implemented to improve the lives of the people in the project area and increase
After several years of the construction, 6,300 people on the Nakai Plateau
moved into custom-built villages located and designed according to their wishes. In
addition to lager houses, made from quality local wood, families received for the first
education and various other community facilities. Nam Theun 2 Power Company
(NTPC) was dedicated to increasing income on Nakai, working with local authorities
From an engineer perspective, the Nakai Plateau offer ideal condition for a
hydro facility. The Nam Theun River was fed by several tributaries that spring from a
reliable watershed. The river runs between two areas of higher ground that from a
basin around the shallow valley. Most importantly, the plateau stands about 350 m
directly above the Gnom malath plain. The height difference provides a long natural
drop for the water and this “head”, as it was called, gives great potential for power.
From social and environmental point of view, the area never been densely
populated, and before Nam Theun 2, Nakai was regarded as one of the poorest
districts in the country. Local residents had little access to health and education
services, and their ability to seek employment or trade was low. Most were very
eager to embrace economic development and supported the idea of the project form
its early days. This part of Laos is rich in terms of natural biodiversity, but was
increasingly becoming degraded due to pressure from logging, poaching and slash-
to remaining primary forest, so providing funds for its protection and securing its

Station, comprehensive compensation and livelihood programs have been put into
action with local communities and authorities. Land-for-land and cash compensation
agreements were made where land was acquired, for example along the
Downstream Channel.
Livelihood restoration programs are in place to provide credit, materials and
technical expertise to families that experienced impacts affecting more than 10% of
their incomes, and are available to all potentially affected villagers in the
renovation, water supply and sanitation improvements and careful monitoring of the

other independent agencies have been visiting reporting on the project for several
years, adding value and giving advice. NTPC continues to work with its partners and
The overall goals of this chapter were firstly to establish the significance of
the general field of study, and then identify a place where a new contribution could
be made. The bulk of the chapter was on critically evaluating the different
Historical Considerations
The potential of the Nam Theun River on the Nakai Plateau for hydroelectric
power was identified as early as 1927, but it was not used until the mid-1970s that
detailed studies of the feasibility of a project began. In the late 1980s the Lao
government targeted Nam Theun 2 as a key vehicle for the economic and social
development of the nation, and invited the World Bank to participate in the Project.
The government and various private investors set up a company and named "Nam

the Nam Theun 2 Power Company Limited, or NTPC. Project financing was
gradually put in place and full construction activities commenced in June 2005
NTPC is the company formed by the Lao Government and the private
shareholders in the Nam Theun 2 Hydroelectric Project to build and operate the
Project for the first 25 years of its operation. NTPC is dedicated to running a world
class hydropower facility and to improving the living conditions of people in the areas
