Resumen
Descripción
The objective of this study is to
analyze the opportunities and strategic options available to
the Royal Government of Bhutan (RGoB) to implement the
hydropower projects included in its power master plan. It
accounts for the relevant legal, technical, environmental,
social and financial issues, as well as Bhutan's
overall macroeconomic framework, and with full recognition
that this resource is critical to Bhutan's economy. The
scope of the study is to: (i) review and understand the
framework for the existing agreement between India and
Bhutan to finance the development of hydropower; (ii) review
the power sector master plan to determine the
competitiveness of planned projects, and their chances of
being developed under a non-subsidized and/or private
finance environment; (iii) review the options open to Bhutan
in terms of power markets and trading; and (iv) propose some
options for hydropower development in the medium to long term.
