This comprehensive approach underscores the project's magnitude and its potential to generate a substantial amount of power. With a proposed capacity of 2880 MW across twelve 240 MW units, the project's value is estimated at Rs. 3,637.12 crores.

A Glimpse into the Future:

The projected timeline for the Dibang Multipurpose Project's completion spans 86 months, reflecting the intricate nature of the project and the dedication required to bring it to fruition.
