Odisha Advances with 6.5 MW Rooftop Solar

In a significant step towards sustainable energy, Odisha is making strides with the development of 6.5 MW rooftop solar projects. This surge in rooftop solar capacity underscores the state's commitment to harnessing renewable energy sources and contributes to the broader national goal of fostering a greener and cleaner energy landscape.

The projects aim to utilise the expansive rooftop spaces across various establishments in Odisha, tapping into solar energy to meet power requirements. The initiative not only aligns with the state's efforts to diversify its energy mix but also positions Odisha as a proactive contributor to India's renewable energy targets.

The 6.5 MW capacity signifies a substantial addition to Odisha's renewable energy portfolio, reducing dependency on conventional power sources and mitigating environmental impact. Rooftop solar projects offer a decentralised and sustainable energy solution, promoting energy self-sufficiency and reducing the carbon footprint associated with traditional power generation.

As Odisha moves forward with its rooftop solar ventures, the state stands poised to reap the economic and environmental benefits of renewable energy adoption. This development showcases the potential for decentralised solar solutions to play a pivotal role in India's energy transition, fostering a cleaner and more sustainable future.
