The PPC Group of Companies has been a leader in developing the renewable resources in the country. Utilizing the power in the rivers, a total of 3017 MW of large hydro power plants and 59 MW of small hydro power plants are now in operation. There are also 16 wind parks of 59.6 MW and 1.35 MW of PV. Our vision for the future looks bright and the table below shows the dynamics of our strategic plan for more RES development.

21. FACTS
•Renewables will be the long-term solution
towards decarbonizing the energy mix and
hence combating Climate Change.
•Renewable resource is excellent and well
documented.
•Changes are needed in order to accelerate
licensing procedures.
•Electrical interconnection needed to be
accelerated.
•National targets with a horizon of 2040-2050
need to be revised.

22. Renewable energy is
unstoppable
