New Delhi [India], November 16 (ANI): India’s transition toward clean, reliable, and affordable energy received a significant boost with the launch of the official website of the Bharat Solar Yatra, a nationwide movement promoting solar adoption and public awareness around renewable energy. The platform aims to provide information, guidance, and government scheme details directly to citizens as the country rapidly expands its solar ecosystem.
The website was unveiled on Wednesday in the presence of senior figures in India’s renewable energy sector, including Arun Kumar Tripathi, former Director General of the National Institute of Solar Energy (NISE) and Chief Scientist & Advisor, MNRE; Purushotam Pandey, Founder of the Bharat Solar Yatra; Charanjeet Singh, Founder & CEO of InterTech Earthing Solutions; and Naresh Piplani, CEO of Perfect Impact Designing Pvt. Ltd.
Launched on August 15 from Ayodhya on India’s 79th Independence Day, the Bharat Solar Yatra is a 180-day national outreach program covering over 25,000 kilometers. The second leg begins today, charting its course across Rajasthan before moving to other regions. Through ground engagement, live demonstrations, and institutional partnerships, the Yatra seeks to empower citizens with practical know-how for adopting solar energy—one of the pillars of India’s sustainable growth strategy.
A central focus of the mission is to simplify and promote key government initiatives such as PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, PM-KUSUM, and the PM eDrive Yojana. By providing clear information on subsidies, financing mechanisms, and installation processes, the Yatra aims to make solar energy accessible to households, farmers, and small businesses alike.
Speaking at the event, Pandey said, “The launch of this website is a crucial step in taking the message of solar power directly to the people. This platform makes solar knowledge accessible to every citizen, helping them understand schemes, installations, and benefits in simple, actionable ways. The Bharat Solar Yatra is not just about awareness; it’s about enabling participation in India’s green revolution.”
Arun Kumar Tripathi added, “This website will act as a bridge between people and India’s solar mission. It stands for transparency, participation, and progress—the core values driving India’s clean energy journey.”
Charanjeet Singh of InterTech Earthing Solutions, whose organization played a key role in developing the digital platform, emphasized the importance of safety in solar expansion. “Safety and sustainability go hand in hand,” he said. “Supporting the Bharat Solar Yatra reflects our belief that clean energy must be built on a foundation of safety, trust, and innovation. Together, we aim to build a safer, greener Bharat for generations to come.”
The website, www.solarawareness.in, serves as a comprehensive digital hub offering live Yatra tracking, step-by-step installation guidance, scheme information, expert resources, and community stories. With its theme, “Solar Awareness – Lighting the Path to a Sustainable Future,” the platform equips citizens with the knowledge needed to adopt solar solutions confidently and responsibly.
As the Bharat Solar Yatra progresses, it continues to exemplify a collaborative national effort uniting policy vision, technological expertise, and public participation, reflecting India’s aspiration to emerge as a global leader in sustainable and people-driven energy transformation. (ANI)
