Bhutan likely to cut power export to India
New Delhi Bhutan is likely to cut power export to India in coming years even as it plans to import electricity during winter. Bhutan is expected to slash power export to India as the neighbouring country’s own electricity consumption rises fast due to industrialisation.
This move may force India to review its strategy to meet long-term power requirement.Power import from Bhutan is progressively declining as availability of surplus electricity in the neighbouring country thins due to its rising consumption.
