The National Capital Regional Transport Corporation (NCRTC) is making significant headway in renewable energy adoption. On Friday, officials announced the installation of solar power infrastructure along the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS Corridor.

Generating three megawatt peak (MWp) in-house solar power, the NCRTC aims to reduce annual carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 3,100 tons. This initiative has transformed stations, depots, and receiving substations into clean energy hubs.

With an ambitious target of 11 MW solar power capacity, NCRTC plans to save around 11,500 tons of CO2 emissions annually, marking a substantial step in combating climate change. Operational solar plants at Sahibabad, Guldhar, and Duhai stations are poised to significantly reduce electricity expenses.
