Signify (Euronext: LIGHT), the world leader in lighting, recently illuminated 5 schools in the Kamrup district of Assam under its Jagmag Pathshala CSR program, in association with SRF Foundation. The project was inaugurated by the Hon’ble Governor of Assam Shri. Prof. Jagdish Mukhi at Nartap ME School, Dimoria Block, Kamrup(M), Assam.
The company has installed a 2.5 KW solar power plant and energy efficient lights and fans in 5 classrooms in each school, reducing their dependence on traditional electricity sources and reducing their carbon footprint. They have also installed outdoor lighting in all schools, making them safer for students and staff in the evening hours.
The solar power plant will provide clean and sustainable energy to the schools, thereby reducing their dependence on traditional electricity sources and also lower their operating costs and carbon footprint in the long run. Natasha Wadhwa, Head – CSR, Signify Innovations India Limited, said, “The solar power plant will enable the school to be energy self-reliant and sustainable in the long run.”
