The proposed project in northern Laos sits about 100 km south of the Lai Chau-Dien Bien fault line in a seismic-prone area. The mega-dam's construction might increase the probability of earthquakes in a region already prone to seismic activity. The National Energy Administration is planning to setup distributed solar photovoltaic demonstration power plants across the country. The plants will be operated in National Economic Development Zones and industrial parks. The U.S. Agency for International Development said it will partner with U.S.-based institutional investor Northern Lights Capital Group to facilitate a US$100 million investment in India's clean energy sector via Nereus Capital.
