Servotech Power Systems has signed a pact with Smart Power India, a subsidiary of Rockefeller Foundation, to encourage the use of solar-powered solutions for enabling consistent electrification and access.
The objective is to educate and encourage the rural communities in the states of Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Orissa, and Jharkhand to embrace and adopt the use of solar-powered solutions.
As an expression of agreement and understanding for existential health risks, lack of developmental opportunities, and prevailing poverty crisis in the rural regions due to lack of access to electricity and quality & reliable electrification solutions, a collaborative partnership has been formalized to raise awareness for the utilization and benefits of solar energy for electrification and well-being that strongly correlates to economic development, welfare and reduction of poverty.
Besides ensuring access to reliable and quality electricity, the MoU has been inked to eliminate the dependence and reliance on traditional biomass cookstoves used in the rural areas that expose families to high levels of indoor air pollution and severe adverse health impacts that result in a higher mortality rate or lower life expectancy.
