Renewable energy solutions on display: on 5th and 6th of April, the GIC project together with its implementing partners SELCO Foundation and APMAS organised a two-day agricultural exhibition of renewable energy technologies in Madanapalle, in Indiaā€™s eastern state of Andhra Pradesh. More than 40 technology innovators, manufacturers and entrepreneurs showcased solutions and offered live demonstrations of over 20 sustainable technologies. The exhibition attracted a huge crowd of interested people: more than 2000 farmers and other entrepreneurs visited the different booths during the event.

The promotion of technologies based on renewable energies is a core pillar of the GICā€™s work. Together with its partners, the project has successfully piloted integrating renewable energy solutions in the tomato value chain in Andhra Pradesh since 2019. Check out the report on ā€œSustainable Energy Solutions (SDG 7) for Tomato Value Chainā€ to get an overview of the introduced solutions.
