NHPC has clarified the impact of flash floods that hit Himachal Pradesh on June 25, 2025, on its power stations. Parbati-II (800 MW) suffered some damages and is under restoration, with one unit expected to restart by July 14, 2025; full damage assessment is still in progress. Parbati-III (520 MW) was shut down as a precaution, but all its generating units have been restored and are operational as of July 2, 2025. No other NHPC hydroelectric stations in Himachal Pradesh are currently affected. NHPC stated that financial loss is not yet determinable, noting that revenue impact depends on whether Annual Fixed Charges are recovered by year-end.
Short-term generation loss at Parbati-II may affect quarterly output, but since NHPC's power purchase agreements recover fixed costs annually, the financial hit is likely limited unless outages extend significantly. Investors should watch for the final damage assessment and restoration timeline for Parbati-II's remaining units.
