Hyderabad, Dec 20 (UNI) Governor of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, ESL Narasimhan on Thursday said that Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) should make installation of solar plants and generation of non-conventional energy mandatory for permission to multi-storied residential and commercial complexes in the city.
Addressing at the Telangana State Energy Conservation Awards - 2018, programme being organised by the Telangana State Renewable Energy Development Corporation here, Narasimhan said costs of solar panels have come down now and became less expensive and over a period of time the costs get covered.
The Governor said GHMC should pioneer this effort to be followed up by other Metropolitan cities later on and Municipal authorities should ensure that at least part of the multi storied complex are covered by solar energy and otherwise clearances should not be given.
