Bharat Forge Empowers Rural Communities with Sustainable Solutions
Pune, 12th July 2023: Bharat Forge, a prominent Pune-based conglomerate, has taken significant strides in fulfilling its corporate social responsibility by implementing sustainable initiatives that bring positive change to rural communities. Through their latest project, the Lokarpan Solaha solar water pump systems, Bharat Forge has successfully provided clean and accessible water to three villages and enhanced the educational experience for students in another village.
In the village of Rui, Bharat Forge has installed a cutting-edge 24 KW capacity solar water pump system, named Lokarpan Solaha. This system, equipped with solar panels, is revolutionizing water accessibility by ensuring that every doorstep has readily available water. Approximately 3,600 villagers will directly benefit from this sustainable solution. By reducing dependency on electricity and diesel, this initiative will alleviate the burden of hefty electricity bills for the Gram Panchayat, allowing funds to be redirected towards the overall development of the entire community.
Likewise, in the villages of Belewadi and Jaygaon, Bharat Forge has successfully implemented solar water pump systems with capacities of 12 KW and 24 KW respectively. These systems will provide easy access to water for approximately 3,600 and 2,300 villagers respectively. By harnessing the power of solar energy, Bharat Forge aims to minimize environmental impact while improving the lives of rural communities.
Recognizing the paramount importance of education, Bharat Forge has also installed a 5 KW solar system in the Zilla Parishad School at Thakarwadi village. This initiative directly benefits 120 school children who often face frequent power cuts during school hours. The solar system ensures the smooth functioning of the school’s computer lab and e-learning centers, providing uninterrupted access to educational resources and enhancing the overall learning experience for the students.
