Arunachal to Sign MoA with CPSUs to Set up 5 Hydropower Plants

During its 7th meeting of the year, the Arunachal Pradesh Cabinet approved a memorandum of agreement (MoA) with Central Public Sector Undertaking (CPSU) to develop hydropower in the state. The MoA will pave the way for the potential unlocking of five hydroelectric projects with a combined installed capacity of 2820 MW.

The Cabinet believes this will lead to significant investment in the state and generate employment opportunities. The state government will retain ownership of the terminated hydropower projects with an installed capacity of 2823 MW, which will be handed over to two CPSUs as part of the agreement.
