Green Initiatives
Solar Energy utilization in India has been growing steadily over the last two decades. A wide variety of technologies have been developed and some of these have reached maturity and user-friendly status. The technologies are suitable for decentralized applications and have no negative impact on the environment. Both solar thermal and photovoltaic applications have large potential in the country.
Since ECF focuses at promoting education and development in rural areas, which primarily have to bear the brunt of electricity and power cuts due to supply constraints, the organization has established the Institute of Renewable Energy and Research,to facilitate research and implementation of eco-friendly and scalable technologies for harnessing renewable energy, to compensate for power shortages in the intervention areas.
The Institute of Renewable Energy and Research was established with the purpose of development and encouragement of eco-friendly technologies with the vision of establishing linkages with Indian and International industries and institutes.
The institute was entrusted to conduct different courses to train the students and meet the requirements of the industry and to conduct training/entrepreneurship courses for unemployed youths
Tapping solar energy to generate standalone power for these schools has not only enabled them to save power that is in the deficit but also contributed towards reducing the Carbon footprint in the area as these technologies are zero emission, pollution-free, nowhere, contributing to the existing and prevalent greenhouse effect. Assisted by qualified engineers, the organization has managed to become a hub of energy conservation activities in Himachal Pradesh. Soon, a proposal is in the offing to declare Baru Sahib as “Solar Village”.
Kalgidhar Society aims to build superior human Character and high moral values as a way to establish permanent world peace.

cutting through complexityWhat I heard, it is much more than that. This is a place worth visiting and taking a part in this movement. Students of villages are being given Free Education and all other facilities. The Rural School results are highly impressive. Government of India, Indian State Governments & Punjab Chief Minister should adopt this as a Model. Foreign students are happy. Baba Iqbal Singh is a blessed soul. May Satguru give all success to The Kalgidhar Trust!
