Apraava Energy transforms lives with solar solutions across India

Empowering 60,000 people in 40 villages, reducing CO2 emissions, and enhancing education and healthcare.

Apraava Energy, India’s leading integrated energy solutions provider, has positively impacted nearly 60,000 disadvantaged people across India through its five-year solar development program. With a core focus on people and the planet, these initiatives, implemented in partnership with SELCO, span nearly 40 villages and reduce over 130 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually, equivalent to planting 6,500 trees annually.

These community interventions have fostered comprehensive development by enhancing the safety of young girls in schools, electrifying healthcare centres, and creating employment opportunities for differently-abled individuals and women.

Key highlights of the solar solutions’ impact across five states—Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Haryana, and Telangana—include:

• Solar lighting installations in villages and schools have provided safety and security, preventing encounters with evil creatures such as snakes and scorpions.

• Solar electrification in primary health centres ensures uninterrupted functionality of essential facilities like labour rooms, baby warmers, and vaccine cold supply chains.

• E-Shala, along with solar-based fans and lighting, has improved access to and the quality of pre-primary education (Anganwadi) in rural areas.

• Digital education kits have enhanced learning quality and increased enrollment.

• Interactive learning tools with curated educational content have benefited teachers.

• Solar-powered appliances such as fridges, copiers, scanners, printers, and roti-rolling machines have created employment opportunities for differently-abled individuals and women.
