About Pankaj Kumar
National Consultant
I am engaged with some of the historic Rural and Renewable Energy developments in Nepal’s far-flung landscape over the last 20 years. For about decade, Pankaj worked as M&E Expert cum Renewable Energy Expert in executing large-scale infrastructure projects, which presented varied challenges. He jointly worked with government executing agency, Alternative Energy Promotion Center (AEPC) and various development partners i.e. EU, GIZ, SNV, FCDO/DFID, UNDP, ADB and NRREP. As a M&E Expert, he assisted the Alternative Energy Promotion Center (AEPC) to modernize and reform the M&E framework & implementation, MSI tracking, delivery mechanism and promotion throughout the country. Given his technical ability, he was deputed by the EU, FCDO and SNV as M&E Expert to the AEPC, where he worked on Renewable Energy Technical, Monitoring, Evaluation and Capacity Development. He spent more than a decade on infrastructure development for the poor people of Karnali (far-flung) and Far- western districts of Nepal. He was also appointed as Team Leader by Social Welfare Council (SWC) for the final evaluation of 15 I/NGOs projects in Nepal. Pankaj holds a master's in Rural Development from Tribhuvan University. He received a Government of India scholarship to pursue his bachelor’s in electrical engineering from the National Institute of Technology (formerly REC), Durgapur, India.
