Railways’ Solar Power Push: Jodhpur Division Achieves In 5 Months What Took A Year Earlier
SUMMARY
Jodhpur Division of Indian Railways has accelerated its solar power adoption, achieving in just 5 months what previously took an entire year. This remarkable progress reflects Railways' aggressive push toward renewable energy and sustainability goals. The division installed solar panels across stations and buildings, significantly cutting electricity costs and carbon emissions. This aligns with Indian Railways' broader mission to become a net-zero carbon emitter by 2030, reducing dependence on conventional energy sources.
