Puwa Khola Hydropower Station (Nepali: पुवा खोला जलविद्युत आयोजना) is a run-of-the-river hydro-electric plant located in Ilam District of Nepal. The flow from Puwa River, a tributary of the Mai Khola, is used to generate 6.2 MW electricity. The plant is owned and developed by Nepal Electricity Authority, a government-owned public company. The plant started generating electricity in 2060-12-22 BS.
