Bhutan Power Corporation Limited (BPC) successfully hosted a two-day Biodiversity Workshop from 20–21 July 2026 at Hotel Ariya, Thimphu, bringing together professionals from the energy and conservation sectors to strengthen knowledge and capacity on biodiversity management in infrastructure development.

The workshop was funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) as part of the Technical Assistance (TA) for the Sector Loan on Distributed Solar Projects in Bhutan, reflecting the importance of integrating biodiversity considerations into the planning and implementation of sustainable energy infrastructure.

The workshop was officially inaugurated by Mr. Sangay Tenzin, Director, Construction & Procurement Department, BPC, who highlighted the need to ensure that Bhutan’s development aspirations continue to be balanced with the conservation of its unique natural heritage.

The workshop brought together participants from BPC, Druk Green Power Corporation Limited (DGPC), the Department of Forests and Park Services (DoFPS), and the Royal Society for Protection of Nature (RSPN), providing a valuable platform for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and technical learning.

The technical sessions were facilitated by Mr. Tom MacArthur, Biodiversity Expert working with the ADB, who guided participants through the principles and practical application of ADB’s Environmental and Social Standard 6 (ESS6) on Biodiversity Conservation and Sustainable Management of Living Natural Resources. Through technical presentations and interactive group exercises, participants explored international good practices for biodiversity risk assessment, application of the mitigation hierarchy, critical habitat management, and biodiversity offsets in infrastructure projects.

As Bhutan continues to expand its renewable energy and power infrastructure, strengthening institutional capacity on biodiversity management is essential to delivering projects that are environmentally responsible, socially sustainable, and aligned with international good practice.

BPC extends its sincere appreciation to the ADB for its continued support through the Technical Assistance programme, to Mr. Tom MacArthur for sharing his international expertise, and to all participating organizations for their active engagement and valuable contributions throughout the workshop.

Together, we are strengthening the knowledge, partnerships, and technical capacity needed to deliver infrastructure that powers Bhutan’s future while conserving its extraordinary biodiversity.

The Corporate Strategic Plan 2026–2035 (CSP) outlines a transformative journey for BPC to evolve from a traditional grid operator into a modern, agile, and customer-centric energy enabler. The CSP embraces the outcomes of situational analysis, alignment with national economic development programs and priorities, global benchmarking, and a Balanced Scorecard framework approach.

BPC’s strategic direction is:

The BPC shall be guided by five strategic pillars.

These pillars will guide BPC toward the destination and results over the next decade. Eighteen strategic objectives are derived across the four Balanced Scorecard perspectives of Organizational Capacity, Internal Process, Customer, and Financial.  These strategic objectives are backed by initiatives and results.

BPC and its employees shall uphold the Core Values of IMPACTS.

CSP will reinforce national transmission and distribution capacity, reliability & efficiency, assist in digital transformation, enhance customer services, transparency, and support financial sustainability and national goals. The successful implementation of the CSP will enable BPC to emerge as a trusted, reliable and financially resilient utility equipped to sustain the energy landscape of Bhutan.

The development of GMC as a Special Administrative Region under “One Country, Two Systems” will require BPC to prepare for an independent operation modality, asset segregation, and tailored tariff structures for this strategic vision and establish a subsidiary company. The efficient operation and management of power supply shall be taken up by the subsidiary company.

The strategic priorities of BPC are:
