Published on: 

Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) in line with the policy of Indian Railways is steadily progressing to achieve the target of net zero carbon emission by the year 2030.

To further minimise dependence on fossil fuels, NFR is adopting various steps to generate more green energy by installing Roof-Top Solar power plants in service buildings and other installations spreading.

To meet the energy demand through renewable energy, NFR has generated 1.45 million units saving Rs 97.9 lakhs (approx) during April-June, 2024.

For non-traction energy consumption, on account of improved power factor and rebate on timely payment NFR has also saved Rs 66.7 Lakhs (approx) from April to June, 2024.
