Everyone wants to own a piece of everything! As we start growing, we are taught this is yours and this is mine. We learn to call a toy our own and with age we start accumulating things and take pride in calling it our own. Be it our first bike, or our own house, own car, or own appliances at home, etc. The list is very long and never ending. A person gets pride and some satisfaction when he calls something his own. When you have a house and all the electrical appliances to call your own, why not own the electricity that is needed to run your household, instead of renting it. We use power and pay for it at the end of every month. But how about getting free power without any need to pay for it? We do use gensets in case of a power cut, but given the high diesel cost and increasing pollution from these gensets, it is time to explore cleaner sources of power.
Solar power is a technology that is fast replacing traditional fossil fuel-based power. It is not only eco-friendly but has become extremely competitive with the conventional grid supplied power. Coal is the main source of traditional power but given its extensive usage, coal is fast depleting. However, solar power is free, non-polluting and will never get expended. It is present in abundance. So, we at Loom Solar, are launching a campaign, “Apne Ghar Ho, Apni Bijli”, to make people more aware about the benefits of installing a solar system on your home rooftop and reap the cost advantages.
Houses equipped with a rooftop solar system have higher demand and value in the western countries. The initial cost of installation is definitely higher when compared to the traditional power system, but this cost gets covered up in 6-7 years’ time and then you get to enjoy free power. That day is not far off in India too. With rising awareness, improving technology and falling cost, every home in our country will also have its own power generation system.
So why wait? The campaign – Apne Ghar Ho, Apni Bijli starts this NAVRATRI. Our aim is to cover 200 districts across India and to convey the message – Apne Ghar Ho, Apni Bijli!
