Smart Solar Infrastructure: From Urban Canal to Clean Power Source

New Town, Kolkata, installed a 1 MW solar plant over the Bagjola canal—generating 7.3 lakh units of clean energy annually without using any land. The system also reduces water evaporation and cuts 6.57 lakh kg of CO₂ emissions each year. It’s a scalable, climate-smart model for dense urban areas with limited ground space and growing energy needs.
