The United Nations Office in New York has installed solar panels on its roof to power the building’s energy needs. The solar panels, gifted by India, can generate power up to 50 Kilowatt (KW).
“Solar panels, a gift from India, are installed on the roof of the UN. The panels are powered up to reach the max of 50 KW of generation power,” NDTV quoted a UN tweet.
Alongside the solar panels, a green roof is also placed in the United Nations headquarters. A green roof, also called a living roof, is a roof covered with vegetation.
Showing the country’s commitment to fight climate change by harnessing renewable sources of energy, Syed Akbaruddin, India’s Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the UN, had earlier tweeted that India has funded solar project at UN Headquarters to reduce carbon footprint and promote sustainable energy.
