The Ministry of Power has approved new policies to boost hydroelectric generation and to map urban assets, marking a step forward in energy and urban planning.
The Ministry of Power has given the green light to two new policies aimed at expanding the country’s hydroelectric capacity and improving urban asset mapping. The hydro power policy seeks to streamline approvals and attract investment in new and existing hydroelectric projects. The urban asset mapping policy will create a comprehensive database of city infrastructure, facilitating better planning and resource allocation. Both policies were presented in a recent cabinet meeting and received unanimous approval, signaling the government’s commitment to sustainable energy and smart city development.
