Bhutan grid-connected solar panels

4 FAQs about [Bhutan grid-connected solar panels]

Does Bhutan have a solar energy project?

The project was executed by the Bhutanese government’s Department of Renewable Energy in collaboration with the Bhutan Power Corporation, a public utility. It received funding support from the Japanese government and was supported by the United Nations Development Programme in Bhutan. Is this the start of a solar energy rollout in Bhutan?

Could a solar power plant be connected to Bhutan''s national grid?

On 27 August, the first ground-mounted solar power plant to be connected to Bhutan’s national grid went online. Households could be powered for a year by the solar plant at Rubesa, given the average household in Bhutan uses 1,567 kWh of electricity per year

Why is Bhutan building a solar plant in Rubesa?

Phuntsho Namgyal said that the solar plant in Rubesa is part of the country’s plan to diversify its energy sources and enhance energy security. In 2019, the International Renewable Energy Agency carried out a Renewable Readiness Assessment of Bhutan.

Why is solar energy a problem in Bhutan?

An additional problem is that the current low cost of power means people are not incentivised to explore solar energy, according to Adhikari. In Bhutan, the majority of the population live in rural areas, where energy is subsidised. Even those in cities are charged around BTN 3 (about USD 0.04) per unit (kilowatt-hour).
