When the world's only Solar-powered aircraft, Solar Impulse 2, recently decided to land in the commercial capital of Gujarat, Ahmed Bard, the gesture also proved that the state's green certificate was correct.
After all, Gujarat is home to India's first and largest solar park, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi worked on the project as chief minister in 2012.
The park covers an area of 5,000 acres, located in the village of Charanka in Patan district, and today is able to generate a total of 308 MW of electricity from its photons
Hungry solar panels passed the State Grid, eventually helping people watch TV and charge their phones.
More importantly, the park will be more shiny in the next few years, and more solar companies are showing interest in the investment in the region, which is known for its abundant sunshine, according to state officials.
Let's wait and see, this trend is in line with the growing interest in renewable energy initiatives across the country in recent years. after the cost of raw materials for solar panels has dropped, only environmental activists have visited.
In Bihar state, the government of Nitish Kumar plans to use solar energy to power 800 villages after a project by the environmental organization Greenpeace brings light to the residents of Dharnai, last year, A village in the heart of Nassar, eliminated 33-
The darkness of the year provides round-the-
Clock power for 450 households and 50 business establishments.
"Dharnai has become a demonstration project and is now being promoted in 48 villages," said Ramapati Kumar, chief executive officer of the Centre for Environmental and Energy Development (CEED)
A private company involved in the Greenpeace initiative.
"The Nitish Kumar government has taken steps to implement the Dharnai model in other parts of the state," he said . ".
The state has also introduced a solar-powered irrigation drive to run 200 pilot pumps in the sun, not diesel.
"The state has set a target of 2 lakh pump units in the next five years," Kumar said . ".
Recently, Kolkata Municipal Corporation, a civic group in West Bengal, also launched some solar projects in the state.
The company set up a solar company.
Electric bus stops in the southern suburbs of the golf course-one of the state's similar initiatives, after more and more crimes against women.
The green project was funded by the national minister for youth affairs, Arup Biswas, and supported by KMC.
"We started the project and sent KMC advice on more such bus stops throughout the city," Biswas said . ".
Kolkata also owns the country's first solar residential project called rabirashmi Abrams (
Solar Residential Complex).
The project is distributed in one area.
The Renewable Energy Development Authority of West Bengal has planned 76 acres of land.
Each family in the complex generates 2KW of electricity from the solar tiles on the roof for their own consumption and delivers the remaining power to the grid.
Owners will also get electricity from the grid if necessary.
This arrangement works on monthly net metering, a mechanism that helps track excess power transferred to the grid and earn cash paymentsbacks.
Meanwhile, more solar companies are lining up to invest in Gujarat.
It is estimated that there are already 25 companies in Charanka Park and save about 80 tons of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere.

A joint venture between the central government and Himachal state is also expected to install a 10 MW project with a total installed capacity of more than 400 MW in the park.
"These projects may attract new investments of more than Rs 1,000," said a senior official who declined to be named . ".
The state's economic review document notes that the work of developing infrastructure to accommodate more power and power evacuation systems has begun in a war --footing.
Gujarat now accounts for 66 of India's total solar power generation.
In the renewable energy sector, there is growing optimism that businesses want the government to do more, particularly recently when Finance Minister Arun Jaitley cut the budget for the new energy and renewable energy department in February.
Energy experts believe that if ambitious goals are to be achieved, governments must be aligned in terms of policies, priorities and allocation of funds.
Prior to this, the solar project will continue as a sparkling oasis Island within each state.
