AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Hydropower Push: Bhutan is moving toward 25,000 MW by 2040, with 20,000 MW from hydropower and 5,000 MW from solar, as the Nyera Amari I and II (404 MW) project advances into DPR work. Parliament Watch: MPs pressed for clearer timelines and transparency on Nyera Amari’s repeated delays, while MoIT defended infrastructure planning and climate-resilient drainage in Thimphu. Urban Resilience: MoIT says Thimphu’s stormwater and roadside drainage upgrades are built on master plans and climate-risk assumptions to cut recurring flooding. Disaster Funding: Government allocated Nu 622 million for monsoon restoration and disaster response, citing hundreds of roadblock incidents nationwide. Energy & Safety Rules: MoIT clarified mandatory geotechnical testing under the Thimphu Structure Plan, arguing Bhutan’s high seismic risk makes subsurface checks necessary. STEM & Jobs: A new piece highlights how Bhutanese youth are widening “success” beyond government jobs amid high youth unemployment. Crypto Payments Trend: A report notes stablecoins are being used as everyday financial infrastructure across Asia, with Bhutan described as taking a long-term, institution-focused approach. Tech Industry: Bitdeer launched the SEALMINER DL1 Hydro mining machine, targeting high-density, hydro-cooled operations. Culture & Heritage: Bhutan is developing national guidelines for museums and heritage galleries to standardize governance and improve public access. Community Innovation: Tarayana’s 20th annual fair spotlights climate-resilient rural livelihoods and technology-supported initiatives.
