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.

Bhutan is tapping into solar energy with its first grid-tied solar

The commissioning and inauguration of the 180kW grid-tied Solar Power Plant marks the start of Bhutan''s investment in grid-tied solar energy as a viable alternative energy source in the face of soaring domestic demand and climate change.

BSIP launches 500kW solar installation

The 393 rooftop panels are expected to generate over 365,000 units of energy annually. Electricity from these installations will be integrated seamlessly into the Bhutan Power Corporation''s low-voltage grid, bypassing the need for batteries.

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.

First phase of Bhutan''s Utility-Scale Solar Project to complete by

The first phase of Bhutan''s first utility-scale solar power project at Sephu in Wangdue Phodrang is set for completion by March next year. A utility-scale solar facility generates solar power and feeds it into the grid. The 17.38-megawatt solar farm is expected to generate around 24 million units of energy annually, once operational.

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.

6 FAQs about [Bhutan solar panels buy]

Can solar power plants help Bhutan achieve energy security?

The Solar Plant in Rubesa is one such initiative that takes Bhutan a step closer to achieving energy security through a diversified and sustainable energy supply mix. The project particularly demonstrates the viability of solar power plants on a utility-scale.

Why should Bhutan invest in solar energy?

Like hydropower, sun is a bountiful resource Bhutan can tap into for producing renewable energy in keeping with our carbon neutrality commitments and also for enhancing energy security through diversification of energy sources.

Can a solar power plant boost hydropower supply in Bhutan?

"Solar plant such as this can augment hydropower supply to meet our rapidly increasing domestic electricity demand, especially in winter months," he said. Electricity in Bhutan is mostly generated from hydropower, a renewable energy source, unlike fossil-fuel driven power plants that are major contributors to carbon dioxide emissions worldwide.

Is Bhutan a fossil fuel country?

The Director also said that Bhutan generates all our electricity from renewables, yet it hides a paradox. He said that almost 78 per cent of our energy consumption is fossil fuel because our transportation system is dependent on it, including cooking and heating needs.

Is Sephu solar plant the first medium solar farm in India?

Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Loknath Sharma said, “Sephu solar plant is the first medium solar farm in the country.” The minister said that Sephu solar plant marked the beginning of achieving a 500-megawatt energy target through solar power in the next three years. He said that the plant project is undertaken by the ministry.

What happened to Shingkhar solar power plant?

When Shingkhar solar power plant was dropped the ADB couldn’t fund the wind farm as it became economically non-viable. As per the Renewable Energy Management Master Plan 2016, it is estimated that Bhutan has the potential to produce 12 gigawatts of solar and 760 megawatts of wind energy.
