Bhutan, a tiny, Himalayan country located between India and China, relies significantly on hydropower. Hydropower accounts for 45% of government revenue and 12% of GDP, defining Druk Green Power Corporation (DGPC) as the country's largest revenue generator. Which was established in 2007 as a subsidiary of Druk Holding and Investments, DGPC oversees Bhutan's hydropower assets, which include five main plants and six subsidiaries. The development has brought affordable and clean energy to even many of the remote locations, improving quality of life and boosting industrial growth. Druk Green Power Corporation (DGPC) has implemented SAP, signaling a strategy move toward cost optimization and efficiency improvement. This ERP solution addresses issues such as data inaccuracies, manual inefficiencies, and increased business complexity by centralizing data and automating procedures. SAP delivers real-time insights and informed decision-making, resulting in lower operational costs and more production. SAP also improves collaboration, transparency, and regulatory compliance across divisions.
