DHI Explores Renewable Energy Potential in the Country

September 27, 2024

  • Bhutan’s geologic features suggest it has strong potential to generate geothermal energy, which uses naturally occurring heat from the earth to generate electricity, heating, geothermal spas and other applications and potentially drastically reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the process.
  • Bhutan already meets most of its domestic power needs with renewable energy and at the same time is a major exporter of electricity to India, helping to accelerate the green transition for the wider region.
  • Druk Holding and Investments Ltd is working with global partners to explore unlocking the unique renewable energy potential of the Himalayas. Focusing on future-oriented investments as part of our 10x journey corporate strategy, we aim to grow the value of our investment portfolio by 10x by the year 2030.

Geothermal exploration for various use cases, including electric power generation, are types of innovative technology that would propel the 10x journey, delivering on DHI’s ambitious growth target while also leveraging a proven but potentially underutilised renewable energy source to help drive economic growth and provide a better future for young people in the Kingdom.
