Extract from the Article:
The Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) in
Uttar Pradesh is set to enforce a mandate requiring solar panels on residential plots over 100 square meters.
This initiative comes as part of a broader
plan by the GDA to make solar panels compulsory for larger residential
properties. Ghaziabad is identified as one of the 18 solar cities in Uttar
Pradesh, showcasing the state's commitment to renewable energy sources.
The move by the GDA reflects a growing trend
towards sustainable energy solutions, with a focus on solar power to reduce
dependency on traditional electricity sources. By making solar panels mandatory
for larger residential plots, the GDA aims to promote eco-friendly practices
and harness solar energy potential in urban areas like Ghaziabad.
My Take:
Dr.
Murmuji - Your Opportunity Knocks
Reflecting on my past blog where I highlighted
the challenges of rooftop solar installations in urban areas due to limited terrace space in multi-storied buildings, the
current mandate by the GDA in Ghaziabad resonates with the need for innovative
solutions.
The push towards solar panels on residential
plots over 100 square meters aligns with the urgency to address space constraints
for solar installations. It's crucial to adapt urban development regulations to
incorporate renewable energy requirements seamlessly.
Postman
to Deliver Sun-Shine
In my earlier post, I proposed extending terrace slabs and
parapets in urban buildings to accommodate solar panels effectively,
acknowledging the challenge of limited terrace space for solar installations.
The GDA's decision in Ghaziabad underscores
the significance of regulatory amendments to facilitate solar adoption in
densely populated areas.
Encouraging housing ministries to revise
building codes aligns with the systematic changes needed to promote solar
energy integration in urban infrastructure.
Call to Action:
To the Ghaziabad Development Authority and
urban planning authorities across regions, embrace sustainable energy mandates
with a holistic approach.
Consider revising building
codes to facilitate solar panel installations on residential
properties, ensuring a smoother transition towards renewable energy sources.
