In Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, Indian Railways has set up solar panels along the railway track. TBanaras Locomotive Works has added a removable solar panel system measuring 70 meters, according to the Railway Ministry. It has 28 panels with a total capacity of 15 kilowatt peak (KWp). This step is being considered an important effort towards green and sustainable rail transport. Let us tell you that it can be easily removed and reinstalled as per the requirement, and it will not have any effect on the trains. It is being said that in the coming time this technology can also be used at other railway premises and stations. The most important thing in this is that rubber mounting pads have been used to reduce the vibration caused by trains passing on the tracks. Not only this, CCTV cameras have been installed, keeping in mind theft and vandalism.
New initiative of Indian Railways!
This initiative of Indian Railways is being considered an important contribution towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “Green India” vision and the Net Zero Carbon Emission 2030 target. PM Modi has announced that India intends to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2070. He had assured the world that by the year 2030, India will succeed in achieving many sustainable development goals. Let us tell you in detail what this India Vision-2030 is. How will this goal be implemented? What kind of changes will come in the country after 2030? Let us tell you that the vision of the Government of India, which has been talked about, is to reduce GDP emissions by 33 to 35 percent as compared to the year 2005. The government’s goal is to run 40% of the country’s electricity production capacity on non-fossil fuel and absorb 2.5 to 3 billion tons of carbon dioxide by planting more forests. Under the “Green India” vision, every possible effort is being made to bring a green revolution to the whole country. So far, forests have been increased by 5 million hectares. The government’s aim is to keep the environment clean and provide fresh air to the people by increasing forests. Despite this, a lot of trees are being cut every day for the construction of big buildings. In such a situation, will the government be able to meet the goals of sustainable development on time? It will be very interesting to see this in the coming times.
