All Indian major ports run on solar and wind energy

Capt. John
Indian Major ports have turned to use renewable energy in order to cut costs and reduce the emissions. Namely, India is the first nation to have all government-owned ports running on solar and wind energy.

The country’s Shipping Ministry informed that under the “green port’ initiative”, the 12 major ports are to install grid-connected, roof-top solar and wind power projects, in an effort to facilitate their daily operations, such as shore-power supply to visiting vessels, in an eco-friendly  way.
