Tata Power and Bhutan’s Druk Green Power Corporation (DGPC) have broadened their hydropower partnership by adding the 404 MW Nyera Amari I & II Integrated Hydropower Project. The move raises the collaboration’s identified hydropower capacity to 5,033 MW, up from 4,500 MW earlier, strengthening long-term clean energy supply plans.
Bhutan has signed $515 million in financing deals with the World Bank, partnering with Tata Power, to develop the 1,125 MW Dorjilung Hydroelectric Power Project. Scheduled for completion by 2031, it could generate over 4,500 GWh yearly, lift GDP by 2.4%, and supply nearly 80% of output to India while cutting about 3.3 million tons of CO₂ annually.
