Solar panel costs have dropped significantly, making solar energy more affordable than ever. Homeowners can now recover their initial investment in just 4-6 years while potentially eliminating their electricity bills entirely. This transition is further supported by substantial government incentives, including a central government subsidy of ₹78,000 under the PM Surya Ghar Scheme.
#SDG 9 focuses on building resilient infrastructure, promoting innovation, and supporting sustainable industrial growth. In #India, efforts to strengthen industry and infrastructure are key to driving economic development and creating jobs for millions across the country.
MoRTH Road Accident Report 2023:
Every hour = 55 crashes & 20 deaths.
Business as usual is killing us.
India needs urgent action: stronger MVAA reforms, strict enforcement, and streets designed for safety.
Road safety isn’t optional. It must be a national priority.
We asked students in 3 schools to write postcards describing their dream school routes.
Their visions? Tree-lined paths, safe cycle tracks, and roads where kids can walk and ride freely; without always needing an adult by their side.
Because every child deserves a safe, joyful journey to school.
Do you know that a 1 kW rooftop solar PV system requires only about 100 ft2 or 10 m2 of unobstructed shadow free area on the rooftop? To determine the total space required, multiply the desired system capacity (in kW) by the space required per kW. For example, for a 3 kW system, the required roof space would be 3 kW x 100 ft2/kW, which equals 300 ft2.
#SDG8 is about creating opportunities for all, like fair wages, safe workplaces & sustainable growth. With India’s youth power, thriving MSMEs & growing green jobs, we can build an economy that empowers people & leaves no one behind. #Act4SDGs
2025 has seen courts stepping up where policies fall short, with two landmark judgments that could reshape road safety in India.
Why have our honourable courts stepped in? India faces a worsening road safety crisis: over 1.5 lakh fatalities annually.
With the judiciary taking the lead, will implementation finally follow? Let’s break it down.
We just launched our Safe School Zones Study that focused on 3 school zones in Chennai
With the help of children & parents, we looked at :
How safe kids feel on the road
If roads & crossings support walking/cycling
What the air is like around schools
The results? There’s a lot of work to be done to make school commutes safer & healthier, that we'll share over the next few weeks.
