Sephu Solar Power Plant

Sephu plant will serve as an addition to the 180 kW grid-connected ground-mounted solar photovoltaic power station in Rubesa (near Punakha), which became operational in October 2021. [1] The Sephu plant is currently under construction over an area of 65 acres in Yongtru village, situated in the Sephu Gewog . [ 2 ]

500KV ground-mounted and grid-tied Solar PV project at

Bhutan Solar Initiative Project (BSIP) set up under Royal Command has implemented two Solar PV Projects in Thimphu. 250kW Rooftop Centenary Farmers Market (CMF) and 500kW Ground mounted at Dechencholing. Both projects are grid-tied, meaning the electricity generated is directly fed into the BPC grid, and are without batteries.

Bhutan Solar Initiative Project (BSIP)

Bhutan Solar Initiative Project (BSIP) aims towards achieving a sustainable energy supply for Bhutan through alternative renewable energy sources of solar grid integration. About 60 De-suups have been actively involved in th is six-month long project and have gained practical knowledge of installing solar PV systems through hands-on experience.

Press Release

It is historic, as we lay foundations for the construction of the 17.38MW Sephu Solar PV Project (SSP) today- Bhutan''s first large-scale, utility non-hydro renewable energy project. Deviating from our sole focus on hydropower, the project aims to enhance domestic capability, embrace emerging technologies, reinforce climate change resilience

3 FAQs about [Solar electronics Bhutan]

Can solar power grow in Bhutan?

“We did the studies on renewable energy management master planning in 2016 and the reports say Bhutan has a capacity for 12 Giga watts of solar energy and 760 MW of wind so we have a lot to tap as there is a lot of opportunity for solar energy solar power to grow in Bhutan. There is a lot of potential and I think this is the right step.”

Which is the largest solar installation in India?

Today, CFM and Dechencholing plants are individually the largest solar installations in the country. The projects are also the first to install the highest capacity panels in the country of 650 watts. BSIP has submitted a generation tariff of Nu 4.59 per unit to the Government for approval.

Is Bhutan a fossil fuel country?

He also mentioned that Bhutan generates all our electricity from renewables, yet it hides a paradox, – almost 78% of our energy consumption is fossil fuel because our transportation system is totally dependent on fossil fuel and cooking & heating needs are still mostly powered by fossil fuel.
