AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Renewables Push: Bhutan’s 13th Five-Year Plan is accelerating hydropower and solar expansion, targeting 15,000MW of new hydropower and 5,000MW of solar by 2040 to reach 25GW total capacity. Industrial Parks: Samtse’s industrial transformation is gaining traction with Nu 1.72B invested across two parks, creating space for 75 industries spanning manufacturing, agro-processing, engineering and heavy industry. Mining Outlook: Bhutan’s first nationwide airborne geophysical survey has flagged potential copper, tungsten and rare earth elements, with DGM moving to ground validation—raising big questions on how mining can fit GNH and conservation. Food Safety: BFDA tightened controls on imported Langra mangoes after calcium carbide was found in 12 of 34 samples, requiring testing before release. Tourism Access: The 24-hour SDF waiver will expand beyond Rinchending from September, letting approved visitors join licensed packages to Milarepa Lhakhang and the Pachu Community Ecotourism site. Energy Cooperation: India and Bhutan reviewed trans-border river management and hydropower progress, including Punatsangchhu-I, with plans to strengthen hydro-meteorological data sharing. Crypto Treasury: Reports say Bhutan’s Royal Government continues selling BTC from its hydropower-mined reserves, with another 434.87 BTC moved to Binance.
