Bihar’s commitment to renewable energy shone bright as 24 solar-powered households celebrated for zero bills, alongside top-performing vendors and department officials, received accolades in Patna. The Thursday ceremony spotlighted 10 vendors with maximum rooftop installations and five key energy personnel driving the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana.
Part of the Solar Mela 2026 at Energy Auditorium, the event was launched by Manoj Kumar Singh, Energy Secretary and BSPHCL chief, through a lamp-lighting ritual. His speech resonated with the audience of beneficiaries and stakeholders.
Singh articulated diverse paths to patriotism, from armed forces to everyday actions like embracing solar under PM Surya Ghar—a pivotal step against escalating global temperatures. He lauded the champions’ panels as emblems of environmental stewardship and national pride.
Implementation hurdles are under scrutiny via Deloitte’s CAP in strategic locations: Patna, Muzaffarpur, Biharsharif. Relentless efforts from Delhi and Patna aim to democratize the scheme.
A no-nonsense order to financiers: approve loans in 10 days, no extra documents. Public outreach was emphasized—local offices stand ready to assist.
In his welcome, PESU’s Dilip Kumar positioned the fair as a one-stop resource for solar insights, vendor vetting, and smart selections. Bihar’s solar surge promises not just free power but a greener legacy, aligning individual actions with national sustainability goals.
