Government’s Push for Sustainable Electrification
The central government has allocated a significant budget of Rs 81 crore for the installation of 274 solar micro grids in Tripura, a crucial step towards sustainable energy and rural electrification. The Ministry of Development of Northeast Region (DoNER) supports this initiative aimed at illuminating over 9000 households in remote and tribal regions.
Tailored Solar Solutions Across Targeted Districts
Strategically positioned in Dhalai, Unakoti, and South, West, and North Tripura districts, each of the 274 solar micro grids varies in capacity from 2 KW to 25 KW. This tailored approach ensures that power generation meets the specific energy needs of each region, addressing the challenge of electrifying remote and inaccessible areas.
Empowering Communities and Contributing to National Goals
Beyond illuminating homes, the introduction of solar micro grids empowers local communities by providing a reliable and sustainable electricity source. This initiative aligns with the broader national goal of achieving energy security and reducing dependence on traditional energy sources. The Ministry of Development of Northeast Region’s financial backing underscores the project’s significance in enhancing Tripura’s overall infrastructure and quality of life.
