Muni Seva Ashram, Goraj, Gujurat
Written by Alexis Ringwald
The school at Muni Seva Ashram in Goraj, Gujarat is a complete utopia of climate solutions.
A 13kW solar PV power plant, designed by Ghadia Solar, provides electricity for school buildings; a biomass gasifier powers the irrigation pumps for the children’s organic farm and neighbouring farms; a solar cooker feeds hundreds of students; distributed solar PV on individual dorm buildings feed lights and fans; a biogas project provides cooking gas for on-site staff quarters; and rain water harvesting replenishes the ground water. The school is for local village children from all over Gujarat and is a place where they can learn the values of preserving the planet. This is a truly inspiring integrated energy solution for off-grid locations. Every available renewable resource is harnessed and utilized.
