Abstract

Construction contracts of hydropower projects are prone to disputes due to the complexities involved in their development. Several Alternate Dispute Resolution Mechanisms are available today for the resolution of these disputes. This paper discusses these mechanisms and their relative merits and demerits over each other. It also records the experience gained by SJVN in dispute resolution during the development of the 1500 MW Nathpa Jhakri Power Project.
