The Adani Group signed an MoU with Druk Green Power Company (DGPC) for the 570 MW Wangchu Hydropower Project. Hydropower plays a vital role in Bhutan’s economy, contributing significantly to its GDP and export revenues. Bhutan exports much of its electricity to India, helping meet India’s energy needs.
Bhutan has significant hydropower potential, estimated at around 30,000 MW, with about 24,000 MW considered economically viable. India’s support since the 1960s has been critical to Bhutan’s hydropower sector development. The Adani Group supports neighboring countries in sustainable development efforts. Recent collaborations include a 20-year agreement with Sri Lanka for wind power stations, representing the largest foreign direct investment and power project in the island nation’s history.
