Nepal to host Power Summit 2025 in September

Kathmandu, Jul 15 (PTI) Nepal will host Power Summit 2025 in September here, said Ganesh Karki, president of Independent Power Producers' Association of Nepal (IPPAN) on Tuesday. The summit aims to support the implementation of Nepal's energy development roadmap, which targets generating an additional 25,000 megawatts of electricity within the next decade, Karki said, during the inaugural of the 23th annual general meeting of the body in Kathmandu. Nepal aims to generate a total of 28,500 MW of hydro-electricity by 2035. Currently Nepal is producing 3,500 MW of electricity. The event will bring together investors, government officials, experts, and stakeholders from over 30 countries to discuss policy debates, share successes stories and exchange views. Karki asked the government to provide tax exemption to new hydropower projects for the first 10 years of production, liberalise government policies to attract more investment and to reform government procedures relating to hydropower generation. Energy Minister Deepak Khadka asked the private sector to invest in transmission lines and assured that the government would encourage the private sector as well as foreign investors to invest in the hydropower sector of Nepal.
Chief guest at the occasion, former prime minister and Nepali Congress chairman Sher Bahadur Deuba, advised the government to create an investment-friendly environment for both Nepalese as well as foreign investors.

How Virtual Tour Technology Is Changing Property Viewing Forever

Virtual tour technology has completely transformed the way we explore, evaluate, and engage with properties.

Thanks to innovations like the Realsee LiDAR camera and immersive Realsee 3D virtual tour platform, the real estate industry is stepping firmly into the future.

They want to step inside a space virtually, assess it from every angle, and feel confident about their decision before ever stepping through the front door. That's where 3D virtual tours come in. Unlike 360° panoramas, which offer limited navigation, a Realsee 3D virtual tour delivers a fully interactive, room-to-room walkthrough. Users can explore the property at their own pace, zoom in on details, and even measure dimensions—all through a web browser or mobile device. Time Savings: Buyers can tour dozens of properties virtually in a single afternoon. Remote Access: Out-of-town clients can view homes without physically visiting.

$2.3M Spent on a $1M Road? Alexandria's Washington Street Project Raises Serious Questions

Alexandria, Indiana — The numbers don't add up. The city of Alexandria awarded a $1.05 million construction contract for the Washington Street infrastructure project. Yet documents obtained by residents show over $2.3 million already paid — not for construction, but for 'engineering,' 'design,' and 'oversight.' To make matters worse, the road remains unfinished. No significant progress has been made in months. No official accounting has been released. And the firm responsible — Clark Dietz — appears multiple times in the city's detailed receipt reports, while actual construction-related disbursements are mysteriously absent. 'How do you spend over two million dollars before breaking ground?' one resident asked. 'Where did the money go?' Residents have filed public records requests seeking breakdowns of spending, planning invoices, and contractor payment logs. So far, city officials have not responded — a potential violation of Indiana's Access to Public Records Act (APRA), which requires acknowledgment within 7 business days. Paired with a growing water crisis — including lab-confirmed E. coli in city tap water — many residents now believe Alexandria is facing not just mismanagement, but a systemic breakdown in accountability. Over 70 locals are backing a citizen-led audit. Others are preparing for class action litigation. And as trust erodes, the silence from elected officials grows more damning by the day.

Injection mold companies have become a backbone of manufacturing success in various industries, including packaging. The companies in the sector need custom mold fabrication for the packaging industry, as in other sectors, including automotive components, aerospace, construction, and medical devices. This is because molds determine the product's success in satisfying crucial parameters of precision, efficiency, and scalability. They make mass production of complex-shaped products easier with due quality across thousands of units. This explains the importance of a reliable mold-making partner, as in custom mold makers in McDowell County, for a manufacturing business. The demand for high-quality, custom molds is increasing exponentially. The acclaimed custom mold makers deliver precision-engineered mold solutions suiting the needs of various industries.

They gather the correct product specifications and make the mold plans after studying the detailed CAD models and drawings. The custom mold supplier will ensure clarity on the packaging design, dimensions, complexity, critical tolerances, and surface finish requirements to optimize the quality of custom molds. The custom mold makers in McDowell County take the call on the mold's material depending on the product's use. They finalize the resin materials from PP, PET, HDPE, and PC depending on the required properties such as strength, heat resistance, chemical resistance, regulatory compliance, etc. At the end of the day, the mold design depends on the material chosen. For the packaging sector, the intended use of the packaging is very important. The mold supplier must know whether the packaging is for food, chemicals, or electronics and pick the suitable material. This ensures that the design has maximum safety and durability to enhance the quality. In short, the choice of the mold-making company will define the final quality of a product. The demonstrated capability for Design for Manufacturability (DFM), aligning all requirements of the final product for international quality without issues like warping, sink marks, or short shots, is very important.
