Energy Program
Energy conservation has become an issue of prime concern. SARA has tried to extend its aid in this critical sector by the use of schemes like solar-energy, bio-gas utilization together with the involvement of the rural sector. The rural people involvement in such schemes not only provide them the employment opportunities but ensures the greater opportunity for the success.
- Solar Energy
The main objectives of the project are:
To develop self-confidence among the women of the rural society and to improve their social status in the society.
To provide solar lighting system through solar lanterns as an alternative to the existing electric supply in the villages amongst the community.
To popularize the concept of solar technology amongst the community, making the solar lanterns economically viable as an income-generation unit for the organisation.
To create awareness amongst the community about the totally pollution-free solar lanterns as against the kerosene lamps and easy to handle with no danger involved as against electricity.

Bio-Gas Energy In August 1989 we set up the first bio-gas plants by SARA. It has a capacity of 4 cum and serviced a family of 15 people. We have so far constructed a total of 40 bio-gas plants.
