The Kerala government on Tuesday launched an ambitious project to turn every rooftop in Thiruvananthapuram into a solar energy-producing station, a senior official of a State-run agency said.
Through this project, the State capital is expected to become one of the largest ‘solar cities’ in the country.
The Kerala government-run Agency for New and Renewable Energy Research and Technology (Anert) opened a three-day expo, where the public can see, learn, and purchase various solar energy systems to implement a Central government scheme that was launched last year by Prime Minister Narendra Modi under the Smart City Mission.
