On July 24, the Department of Energy in Bhutan introduced the National Green Hydrogen Roadmap to produce 710 tonnes of green hydrogen fuel annually by 2030, with a goal of reaching 70,000 tonnes by 2050. The primary objective of this initiative is to reduce the country's reliance on imported fossil fuels. By leveraging its competitive renewable electricity costs, Bhutan aims to enhance its energy security, decrease trade imbalances, establish a diverse energy system, and uphold carbon neutrality. A new five-megawatt green hydrogen plant is set to be built near the Gidakom Mini Power Plant to cater to the needs of fuel cell vehicles. Additionally, Bhutan envisions creating its first hydrogen export pathways by 2030, focusing predominantly on Asian markets such as China and India. This strategic move not only fosters energy independence but also opens up opportunities for economic growth and sustainable development in Bhutan.
