The Maharashtra Government has launched a major initiative to solar-electrify primary health centres (PHCs) in 18 districts with support from the SELCO Foundation. The project, aimed at promoting renewable energy and improving healthcare infrastructure, is expected to significantly enhance the availability of quality healthcare services across the state.

According to Chief Minister (CM) Devendra Fadnavis, the increasing limitations of conventional energy sources have highlighted the urgent need to shift towards renewable energy. The government is committed to expanding energy production through sustainable means, and the SELCO Foundation is playing a key role in advancing this goal, said CM Fadnavis.
