PM Surya Ghar Yojana Surpasses 100 MW Solar Capacity Milestone in Maharashtra

The PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana has reached a major milestone in Maharashtra, crossing the 100 MW mark in installed solar capacity. This initiative, aimed at promoting solar energy, has seen significant growth and adoption across the state.

Launched to enhance renewable energy usage and reduce electricity costs for households, the scheme provides free solar power installations to eligible beneficiaries. By reaching the 100 MW capacity milestone, the program underscores its success in expanding solar energy access and contributing to Maharashtra's renewable energy goals.

The scheme has not only increased solar power generation but also provided economic benefits to thousands of residents. By leveraging solar technology, the initiative helps in reducing dependence on conventional energy sources and supports the state's efforts towards a more sustainable energy future.

The achievement highlights the effectiveness of government policies in driving the adoption of renewable energy solutions. It also reflects a growing trend towards integrating solar power into mainstream energy consumption, aligning with national targets for clean energy development.

As the program continues to expand, it is expected to further boost solar energy capacity and support the broader objectives of reducing carbon emissions and promoting environmental sustainability in Maharashtra.
