This document contains the slide show of solar energy harvesting in Uttarakhand state.
Uttarakhand is situated on the southern slope of the Himalayan range, and the climate and vegetation vary greatly with elevation, from glaciers at the highest elevations to subtropical forests at the lower elevations. Geographical constraints and the scattered population has made it difficult for power distribution companies to extend the grid to many of these remote villages and hamlets. Roads are still being built in most of the northern parts of the states which will be followed by setting up transmission lines for distributing electricity.
