Thimphu, 26th March 2026- The High-Level Mission of International Solar Alliance (ISA), led by Mr. Ashish Khanna, Director General is in Bhutan from 23-27 March 2026, marking the first formal implementation milestone under the ISA-RGoB Country Partnership Strategy (CPS 2025-29).<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The ISA\u2013Bhutan CPS 2025\u20132029, endorsed during a high-level mission in September 2025, provides a strategic framework to advance solar deployment through interventions via policy frameworks, project implementations, capacity building, and strategic financing, aligned with the National Energy Policy 2025 where a target of 5,000 MW of solar capacity is to be achieved by 2040.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The five-day mission brings together high-level bilateral engagements, Steering Committee Meeting, a High-Level Policy and Finance Workshop, and a field visit to the country\u2019s first utility solar PV facility, designed to align stakeholders on priorities, strengthen institutional coordination, and accelerate implementation across CPS priority areas.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The High-Level Stakeholder Workshop and Strategic Roundtable brought together more than 60 participants across government agencies, utilities, development partners, development finance institutions and private sector representatives. The discussions focused on Policy and Regulatory aspects and a Catalytic Financing to improve project feasibility and mobilize investment at scale.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The Mission aims to deliver a clear and time-bound action plan under the CPS, with defined milestones and accountability, align stakeholders on policy and implementation frameworks including knowledge on power purchase agreements (PPAs) and tariff analyses to strengthen project implementations. It also builds consensus on financing approaches, including blended finance and risk-mitigation mechanisms to catalyse private investments, alongside identifying targeted technical support and follow-up actions to sustain implementation momentum.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
