Solar Energy
KUSUM, a green initiative launched by the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy (MNRE) under Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyaan, aims to promote and ensure energy security in the Indian agricultural sector.
India has committed to elevating the utilization of electric power, promoting the benefits of solar farming amongst farmers, and leaving the dependence on fossil-fuel sources. Braithwaite is playing an active role in assisting the government in achieving this goal by 2030 under the Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs). At the time of its launch in 2019, the scheme was composed of 3 components; Component-A, Component B, and Component C. The role of Braithwaite in this coveted project is to provide solarization solutions for irrigation pumps in CAPEX and OPEX modes. In 2022, the company laid the foundation for a 10MW solar power plant.
Wind Energy
With their most efficient technologies, Braithwaite is leveraging wind power to produce clean energy in a safe environment. Multiple wind turbine manufacturers prefer Braithwaite's robust technology for efficient operations and results. For instance, Braithwaite's proven technology is effective against high wind velocities, easy to deploy on rough terrains, easy to install, and maintenance-free. Braithwaite is involved in the manufacturing and supply of mini-grid wind power systems and water pumping solutions to elevate the quality of agriculture and drinking water in remote areas. In addition, the company also delivers services to improve telecommunication in remote areas.
Water & Waste Management
There is no denying that Earth's resources are limited and have started getting depleted. Thus, to ensure the fair distribution of scarce resources and preserve them for future generations, Braithwaite is leveraging novel technology to conserve water and manage waste. For instance, the company insists on constructing residential and commercial buildings with distinct water supply lines for different purposes, such as gardening, toilet, etc., and the construction of water treatment plants for potable water. Concerning waste management, the company is offering solutions such as incorporating bio-digestors in septic tanks.
