The race to increase the renewable energy generation capacity has gone global in the past few years. Likewise, Indian subcontinent has a high potential for solar and wind power generation. According to a recent report by the National Institute of Wind Energy, the country’s cultivable
India has been striving and thriving to generate power through renewable energy resources for quite some time now. The country has a target to reach a renewable energy capacity of 175 GW by 2022, out of which 100 GW will be solar energy. Most of
Amidst the crisis of climate change, the global communities are striving to achieve amounts of renewable energy resources in order to reduce emissions generated by fossil fuel consumption. Whereas the solar and wind energy are contributing their fair share toward achieving this goal, these two
The global need for renewable energy has increased given the rapidly changing climate. Researchers have been exploring new aspects of the field to generate energy in various ways, and generating electricity from raindrops seems possible now. A research team led by scientists from the City
Aiming to become a net-zero carbon emitter by 2030, India has been promptly investing in renewable energy resources. Likewise, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman proposed to set up such land-based plants alongside rail tracks in her 2020 budget speech. She also projected the setting up of
Pursuing the long-term goal of making India cleaner and greener, the Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced the expansion of Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha Utthan Mahabhiyan (PM KUSUM) Scheme, which would provide funds to 20 lakh farmers to set up standalone solar pumps. Presenting the
Constant use of fossil fuels has not only exploited the earth but polluted the atmosphere as well. The only practical solution is consumption of renewable energy sources such as solar power. Though, global communities have switched to solar energy, much of the sun’s energy is
The Indian government has been planning to make Ladakh the country’s first union territory to run completely on renewable energy. The newly declared union territory already has about 30 megawatt (MW) of small hydro projects. The government aims to install solar power plants to reach
Tesla is best known for its electric cars. However, since the last couple of years, the company is pushing to be a world leader in solar roofs and battery storage technology. Recently, they rolled out the third generation of Tesla Solar Roof which is one
The freshwater crisis is a burning issue that the world needs to address before it’s too late. Water scarce regions in parts of Africa, China and India are already dealing with this problem. People in such parts have to walk an average of 3.7 miles
