What I do.
Power
Power systems & renewable energy
Hydropower, switchyard and protection work from the Nupche Likhu internship and the Banepa 66/11 kV substation field study. Solar PV sizing and yield estimation from the agrivoltaics pilot, and a site study of the solar farm in Bidur, Nuwakot.
Embedded
Embedded electronics
Arduino and ESP32 builds with IMU, GPS and GSM modules. Circuits are simulated in Proteus or MATLAB before they go on a board.
Field
Drone surveying & mapping
Aerial survey and mapping of terrain, roads, bridges and settlements. Most recently in Rasuwa and Nuwakot after the 2026 Bhote Koshi flood, on deployment through the Prime Minister's Office.
Software
AI & machine learning
Model development, training and evaluation in Python, and the data and digital systems side of G. Nepal's products, including the Gnepal LMS platform.
Media
Video & camera work
Editing and camera work for project documentation and for G. Nepal's outreach with schools and government offices.
Selected projects. Power and solar first. The flood survey closes the list.
Power · Software
Off-grid Solar Sizing Calculator
Sizes panels, battery bank, inverter (including motor surge), MPPT controller, fuses and cables, then draws a single-line diagram and a PDF report with every step shown. 24 hand-checked tests in JavaScript and Python.
Preliminary solar PV and electrical calculations with every equation shown. Home solar with real PVGIS sunshine data for 27 Nepali cities and the NEA slab bill, solar farms with string and inverter matching, power-factor correction, cable voltage drop to IEC 60228, and draft PDF reports.
Electrical design and configuration of a pilot system that grows crops under solar PV. System sizing, structural layout planning, energy yield estimation and field monitoring of generation performance.

Battery Management System
Voltage, current and temperature monitoring with overcharge, deep-discharge and thermal protection.
Power electronics · Protection
Single-Axis Solar Tracker
LDR-driven tracker with motor-driver angular control. About 25% more energy than a fixed panel in simulation.
Arduino · Proteus · Solar
Solar Panel Cleaning Robot
Brush and water-jet cleaner that traverses the panel, with monitoring to measure the efficiency gain.
DC motors · Control circuit
Smart Helmet
Detects impacts from an MPU IMU and sends the rider's GPS location by SMS through a GSM module.
Arduino · IMU · GPS · GSM
Laser Security Alarm
LDR and laser intrusion detector with a latching 555 alarm. Simulated in Proteus, then built on a PCB.

PDF Tables to Excel
Pulls every table out of a PDF into an Excel workbook, one worksheet per page, with numbers kept as numbers and scanned pages flagged for OCR instead of guessed.
After the 26 August 2026 Bhote Koshi flash flood, the G. Nepal team, including me, was sent to Rasuwa and Nuwakot on deployment from the Prime Minister's Office. Aerial survey and mapping of damaged terrain, settlements, roads and bridges along the Rasuwa and Trishuli corridor, for search, rescue and relief planning.

A little about me.
Electrical and Electronics Engineer, graduated from Kathmandu University in 2026. Most of my coursework and project work was on the power side: hydropower, transmission, protection and solar.
That included a short internship at the Nupche Likhu Hydropower Project and an agrivoltaics pilot in Dhulikhel with the Nepal Technology Innovation Center. Alongside that, embedded work with Arduino and ESP32, usually simulated in Proteus or MATLAB first, some machine learning in Python, and video editing and camera work when a project needs it.
G. Nepal is a small company a few of us started in Kathmandu. It works on robotics, drones, AI and STEM education for schools and government offices. After the Bhote Koshi flood in August 2026 the team, including me, was sent to Rasuwa and Nuwakot for drone surveying and mapping.
Power systems, switchgear and protection, control systems, embedded electronics.
Field study of the Banepa 66/11 kV grid substation.
