Sephu plant will serve as an addition to the 180 kW grid-connected ground-mounted solar photovoltaic power station in Rubesa (near ), which became operational in October 2021. The Sephu plant is currently under construction over an area of 65 acres in Yongtru village, situated in the . Upon its completion, the overall installed capacity of the facility will reach 22.38 megawatts and is expected to be complete by March 2025. It was initially planned a. [pdf]
The Chairperson of the National Council of Bhutan, Lyonpo Tashi Dorji, inaugurated the 180kW grid-tied ground mounted Solar Photo-Voltaic Power Plant at Rubesa, Wangdue Phodrang on October 4, 2021.
The commissioning and inauguration of the 180kW grid-tied ground mounted solar photo-voltaic power plant marks the start of Bhutan’s investment in grid-tied solar energy as a viable alternative energy source in the face of soaring domestic demand and climate change.
Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Loknath Sharma said, “Sephu solar plant is the first medium solar farm in the country.” The minister said that Sephu solar plant marked the beginning of achieving a 500-megawatt energy target through solar power in the next three years. He said that the plant project is undertaken by the ministry.
When Shingkhar solar power plant was dropped the ADB couldn’t fund the wind farm as it became economically non-viable. As per the Renewable Energy Management Master Plan 2016, it is estimated that Bhutan has the potential to produce 12 gigawatts of solar and 760 megawatts of wind energy.

French Polynesia’s energy transition plan has three main objectives: Change the energy model, by gradually replacing the use of fossil fuels with renewable energies in all activities
Hydroelectricity accounts for 23% of the electricity mix in French Polynesia. It is the irst renewable energy source in French Polynesia with an installed capacity of 49.3 MW. Solar water heaters produce hot water using so- lar energy. In 2019, the electricity consumption sa- ved is approximately 22 GWh, i.e. 3% of electricity consumption.
French Polynesia, like most island territories, is highly dependent on hydrocarbon imports. In 2019, 93.8% of energy consumed in the archipelagos came from imports of various petroleum-based fuels. The renewable energy penetration rate in power generation stood at 28.78% in 2019. This figure has remained stable over the last five years.
Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important source in lower-income settings. French Polynesia: How much of the country’s electricity comes from nuclear power? Nuclear power – alongside renewables – is a low-carbon source of electricity.
In French Polynesia, mainly crude oil and its derivatives, hydraulic power and solar radiation PEC is expressed in tonnes of oil equivalent (toe), unit that allows the different energies to be compared in relation to their intrinsic characteristics. litres of hydrocarbons were imported in 2019 in French Polynesia. is the dependency rate.
