Chandigarh’s pledge to tap solar power has been appreciable. Whereas the original target was to attain 75 MW by August 15, the deadline has been extended until December 2023.
The Chandigarh Renewable Energy and Science and Technology Promotion Society (CREST) is responsible for executing renewable energy projects in the city.
To become a model solar city, Chandigarh has set a goal of attaining 100 MWp by 2025. Additionally, a path will be developed to fulfill the solar power generation needs of the city by 2030.
Presently, Chandigarh has 23 solar power projects under development, with 20 of them about to complete. These projects will contribute to a renewable and more sustainable future for the city.
