    What error message do you get?

    In my environment, I installed Npgsql 3.1.8 and I selected the option to install to the GAC during the installation process, there is no issues when I connect to PostgreSQL in Power BI Desktop(2.65.5313.1381).

    In your scenario, please ensure that you select the option to install to the GAC when installing Npgsql . And you can also try to install 3.1.8, then check if the connection is successful.

    Regards,
    Lydia
