Kathmandu University has successfully converted an old petrol car into an electric vehicle (EV), showcasing a remarkable example of student-led innovation. The project was researched and developed by university students, replacing the traditional petrol engine with a battery and electric motor. This initiative highlights a practical and affordable pathway toward sustainable mobility in Nepal. With the government preparing new laws to legalize such conversions, experts expect a rise in similar EV projects across the country. The estimated cost of converting a petrol car into an EV ranges from NPR 500,000 to 600,000. In this video, KU Associate Professor and Head of the Green Hydrogen Lab, Biraj Thapa, shares deeper insights into the project and its future impact.

Nepal’s Sajha Yatayat has successfully converted an old diesel bus into an electric bus, marking a major step toward sustainable public transportation. Although the conversion was completed over a year ago at a cost of around NPR 8 million, the bus has yet to operate on the roads due to the lack of clear legal provisions. The 14-year-old bus stands as a powerful example of innovation meeting regulatory challenges. However, with the government now promising legal reforms, there is renewed hope that such electric buses will soon be seen on Nepal’s streets. We visited the Sajha Yatayat premises and spoke with CEO Bhupendra Aryal to gather deeper insights into this initiative.
