Introducing and promoting the adoption of solar energy technology to enhance livelihoods is a central focus of this energy provisioning project under TERI's "Energy Access for Livelihood Promotion" initiatives, supported by Indus Towers Limited. This intervention aims to develop and deliver tailored technology solutions specifically designed for the needs of weavers.
In this delivery model, TERI takes on the pivotal role of orchestrating the entire project, from strategic planning and tailoring innovative solutions to identifying and engaging partners—whether they be funding agency, technology providers, local institutions, or beneficiary groups. Our consultative, inclusive, and transparent methodology fosters strong, long-term partnerships at every level. A core aspect of our intervention is the continuous development of local institutions, which becomes the cornerstone for sustaining the initiative while also enabling the seamless replication and scaling of successful pilot projects. Central to the sustainability of our efforts is the comprehensive training and capacity building of communities, empowering them to maintain and manage the technology, ultimately leading to increased household incomes and economic resilience.
