Với quan điểm sử dụng nguồn năng lượng tái tạo, mạng lưới đường sắt lớn thứ tư trên thế giới tại Ấn Độ - Indian Railways đã cho ra đời những toa tàu hoả vận hành bằng năng lượng mặt trời.

With a view to use renewable energy source, world’s fourth largest railway network, Indian Railways has rolled out its solar energy powered coaches.

India's state-owned fertiliser manufacturer Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers (RCF) is reportedly planning to reduce energy consumption at two of its urea-ammonia units in Thal, Maharashtra.

The installation of a solar system over water canals has been completed in India.

The Western Indian state of Maharashtra has announced its new renewable energy policy through which it plans to achieve an installed renewable energy capacity of 14.4 GW by the end of the next 5 years.

Indian Railways is soon going to materialise its ambitious plan of harnessing solar energy to run trains.

In order to savings, BEE launched the AgDSM scheme, whereby it would undertake replacement of inefficient pumps by efficient ones through an Energy Service Company (ESCO), at no additional cost to the farmer.

Havells India has launched the country’s first most energy efficient fan - ES 40. A blend of energy conservation and elegant design, the latest addition in the company’s fan portfolio is the result of the company’s firm focus on innovation and strong R&D capabilities. The company has already applied for the patent for its design.

The World Bank and the Government of India have signed an agreement for a $43 million (£29m) grant to boost energy efficiency in the country.

The state of Maharashtra is soon expected to have a policy on energy conservation which will promote the use of power saving LED lighting and building up of renewable energy sources.

LEDs use a semiconductor as its light source and are currently one of the most efficient lighting systems.

“If you use motors without drives, you are using more electricity. You can save 30 to 40 per cent power by using the drive technology”.

Many Indian states and municipalities have announced plans of replacing less energy-efficient lighting with LEDs. Recently, Indian capital New Delhi has announced a pilot project to replace 500,000 streetlights with LED lights.

Power minister Piyush Goyal has said that, overall, conservation can help save $8 billion of electricity annually and provide power to 50 million people.

It was a lightbulb moment for Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi yesterday as he launched a scheme to spread LED bulbs throughout homes in Delhi.

No one, not even the world’s largest coal-mining company, will escape from the impending solar energy revolution in India. The Indian government-owned company has announced its latest initiative to expand solar power infrastructure.

Không một ai, kể cả công ty khai thác than đá lớn nhất thế giới nằm ngoài cuộc cách mạng năng lượng mặt trời sắp diễn ra ở Ấn Độ. Coal India sẽ có xây dựng một nhà máy với công suất điện mặt trời lên tới 1 GW xuyên suốt hai bang ở miền Nam nước này.

Indian wind energy companies are looking to invest in offshore wind energy projects as the government plans to significantly increase the annual capacity added in the wind energy sector as a whole.

In terms of electricity, 95.3 billion units were saved. India’s annual consumption of electricity is about 700 billion units. If this entire saved electricity had to be produced from coal-based thermal power plants, India would have burnt another 98 million tonnes of coal.

A desalination technology powered by solar panels could provide enough clean, palatable drinking water to meet the needs of India's water-deficient villages, MIT scientists say.
