Modi's Suryauday Brightens Homes

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visionary approach to sustainable energy takes a giant leap forward with the launch of the Suryauday scheme. Aimed at transforming the energy landscape in India, the initiative emphasizes the adoption of rooftop solar power in millions of households.

The scheme comes as a beacon of hope for both urban and rural areas grappling with erratic power supply. Suryauday, meaning 'sunrise,' embodies the promise of a new dawn in India's energy sector. With a focus on harnessing solar energy, the scheme encourages citizens to install rooftop solar panels, thereby reducing dependency on traditional power sources.

Key features of Suryauday include financial incentives for households adopting solar technology, making it an economically viable choice. The scheme also promotes environmental sustainability by reducing carbon emissions and reliance on non-renewable energy sources.

As the world grapples with the challenges posed by climate change, Modi's Suryauday emerges as a noteworthy step towards a greener and more sustainable future. The scheme aligns with global efforts to combat climate change and reinforces India's commitment to clean energy.

Experts commend the government's emphasis on decentralizing power generation through rooftop solar installations. This not only ensures a more reliable power supply but also empowers individuals and communities by making them active participants in the country's energy transition.

The Suryauday scheme is set to have a profound impact on India's energy landscape, with the potential to generate millions of megawatts of clean and renewable energy. As the nation strives towards its renewable energy targets, Modi's vision for a solar-powered India gains momentum, positioning the country as a global leader in sustainable practices.

No glass boxes!

India is moving away from the ‘glass box’ syndrome, all-glass façades that were widely used in commercial buildings in the last two decades but came at a significant environmental cost given the country’s predominantly hot and humid climate. Poor thermal performance, excessive heat gain and dependency on mechanical cooling systems made buildings with glass façades energy guzzlers and significantly increased their carbon footprint.That said, it’s important to be aware that “glass is not the enemy,” points out Heena Bhargava, Architect, Architecture Discipline. “How it ..

Why do pavements fail?

India’s highways continue to expand at a healthy pace. But conversations on the surface quality of highways are growing louder because major deficiencies and black spots continue to be identified, and they are cause for concern.“Road surface roughness causes vehicle vibrations that, in turn, can affect the performance of drivers,” explains Dr V K Gahlot, Road Safety Auditor, Centre for Research and Sustainable Development (CfRSD). “Continuous exposure may induce fatigue, a contributory factor to road accidents. Road surface roughness also affects the vehicle operating cost...
