“Adani Group Partners with Bhutan for 570 MW Green Hydro Plant”

Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, announced on Sunday the signing of an agreement with Bhutan for a 570 MW green hydro plant and collaboration on transformative infrastructure initiatives in the neighboring country. Gautam Adani met with Bhutan’s King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck and Prime Minister Dasho Tshering Tobgay in Thimphu.

“Absolutely fascinating meeting with Dasho Tshering Tobgay, Hon. Prime Minister of Bhutan. Signed an MoU with Druk Green Power Corporation Limited (DGPC) for a 570 MW green hydro plant in Chukha province,” he posted on X. “Admirable to see @PMBhutan advancing the vision of His Majesty The King and pursuing broad-ranging infrastructure initiatives across the kingdom,” the Adani Group Chairman added. The Adani Group is looking forward to working closely on hydro and other infrastructure projects in Bhutan.

Gautam Adani further expressed that he was honored to meet the King and inspired by his vision for Bhutan, including the ambitious eco-friendly master plan for Gelephu Mindfulness City, which includes a large computing center and data facilities. “Excited to collaborate on these transformative initiatives, as well as on green energy management for a carbon-negative nation,” he said.

In November last year, Gautam Adani met the King and expressed his excitement to explore opportunities for the Adani Group to contribute to green infrastructure development for “one of our happy and warm neighbors”.
