    The document evaluates Bhutan's domestic biogas sector, identifying strengths as government support, good institutional setup, and competent manpower. Weaknesses include shortage of skilled workers, high dropout rates of trained masons, and lack of monitoring and evaluation systems. Opportunities exist in access to microfinance, financial inclusion policies, and institutionalizing biogas training programs. Threats are donor dependence, competition from other energy sources, and potential changes in policy or government. The document recommends actions like dedicating district staff, setting selection criteria, and promotion programs to address weaknesses and threats.
