This program aims at developing, disseminating and promoting technologies, which are renewable, appropriate, contextual and decentralized. At the same time CART believes in further encouraging existing sustainable practices and nurturing local innovators and initiatives as they already have found acceptability and usefulness in their contexts. To promote and sustain the use of these technologies on a permanent basis, it thinks it necessary to make changes at the policy level.
The Energy program of CART is implemented in three subprogram areas, namely Bio-mass Energy , Solar Energy , and Micro Hydro Power generation in Western Ghats . |
