OverviewHistoryHydroelectric powerOther forms of renewable energyCarbon neutralityGoals and commitments
Renewable energy in Bhutan is the use of renewable energy for electricity generation in Bhutan. The renewable energy sources include hydropower. While Bhutan has seen great successes with developing its large hydropower projects through technical and financial assistance from India, little or no private sector participation with other forms of renewable energy has been evident. In part because of the Sustainable development goals
Through its green energy generation from the project, it is expected to boost the firm power during the winter season and
