To encourage consumption of clean and renewable energy in the
national capital, Delhi’s AAP government is planning to promote the usage of
energy from such sources and will urge citizens to install “net meters” at
their residence places and business enterprises. A senior government official
said the government wants to encourage use of renewable energy sources like
solar power, which is aimed at minimising dependence on conventional power sources
like coal. “The administration is planning to promote clean energy initiatives
and fund research in the area. Delhi has a massive potential to produce power
from alternative sources, and we are keen on tapping that potential.”
