4 FAQs about Bhutan energy storage project

How will solar and wind projects help Bhutan?

The introduction of solar and wind projects helps Bhutan stabilise supply throughout the year. The 500 MW Reliance solar farm and local solar-wind installations like those in Sephu and Rubesa will cover winter shortfalls and reduce the need to import power during dry months.

How will Bhutan achieve its energy goals?

Bhutan plans to achieve this target through diversification in its energy portfolio beyond traditional hydropower, which would include solar and geothermal energy. This will extend to diversifying project structuring and financing through such strategic partnerships.

Will Reliance Power build a 500 MW solar farm in Bhutan?

Reliance Power, under its May 2025 joint venture with Druk Holding and Investments' subsidiary Green Digital, is taking the lead on Bhutan's largest solar investment to date — a 500 MW solar farm to be built in phases across western and central Bhutan.

Can Bhutan become a carbon-negative energy hub in the Himalayas?

Meanwhile, Adani's and Tata's hydro projects will fortify Bhutan's export revenues in the 2030s, supporting the kingdom's broader goal of becoming a carbon-negative, renewable energy hub in the Himalayas. These new power projects signal a major transformation for Bhutan — economically, environmentally, and geopolitically.
