Himachal CM Sukhu Advocates for Expanded Solar Projects in State

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu has called for a significant expansion of solar energy projects across the state. The push for increased solar initiatives aligns with Himachal?s commitment to sustainable development and renewable energy.

During a recent meeting, CM Sukhu emphasised the potential of solar energy to address the state's growing power needs while reducing reliance on conventional sources. He highlighted that expanding solar projects would not only bolster the state's energy security but also contribute to environmental conservation by decreasing carbon emissions.

The CM?s proposal includes the development of large-scale solar farms and integration of solar power systems in rural and urban areas. By harnessing the state's ample sunshine, these projects are expected to generate substantial clean energy, supporting Himachal?s green energy targets.

Additionally, Sukhu underscored the economic benefits of solar expansion, including job creation and technological advancements. The initiative aims to attract investments in the renewable energy sector and promote local industry involvement in solar technology.

The state government plans to collaborate with private entities and financial institutions to fund and implement these solar projects. Emphasis will also be placed on community engagement to ensure that solar benefits reach diverse populations.

By advocating for a robust solar energy infrastructure, CM Sukhu seeks to position Himachal Pradesh as a leader in renewable energy, setting an example for other states and contributing to national sustainability goals.

Creativity is for Humans, Productivity is for Robots!

On most construction sites, the rhythm of progress is measured by the clang of steel, the hum of machinery and the sweat of thousands. But increasingly, new sounds are entering the mix: the quiet efficiency of algorithms, the hum of drones overhead, and the precision of robotic arms at work. Behind the concrete and cables, an invisible force is taking hold: data. It is turning blueprints into living simulations, managing fleets of machines, and helping engineers make decisions before a single brick is laid. This is not the construction of tomorrow; it is the architecture of today – built on ..
