In a significant move towards bolstering the green economy, the Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the Interim Budget 2024, placing a hefty emphasis on solar energy. Highlighting a pivotal scheme, the government plans to propel the rooftop solarisation of approximately one crore households. This not only promises to equip these households with up to 300 units of free electricity monthly but also positions them to earn by selling surplus energy back to distribution agencies, potentially saving them between Rs 15,000 to Rs 18,000 a year.
Beyond household benefits, this initiative is set to invigorate the electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. It's anticipated to spark entrepreneurship among a wide range of vendors associated with the supply and installation of EV chargers. Furthermore, this move will boost employment for the youth, especially those equipped with technical skills in manufacturing, installing, and maintaining solar panels and EV charging facilities, pointing towards a robust economic and environmental benefit.
These strategic steps affirm the government’s commitment towards sustainable development and a significant push towards green energy, reflecting a massive leap in building a self-reliant India. By integrating solar energy and EV charging ecosystems, this budget not merely targets energy efficiency but also underlines the crucial aspect of job creation and entrepreneurial opportunities in the green sector.
