Activities
Solar-powered irrigation and borewells.
Solar dryers for crop preservation.
Renewable energy cold storages.
Climate-smart irrigation and crop practices.
By embedding renewable energy solutions into OIIPCRA and OPELIP, IRDMS reduced reliance on fossil fuels while enhancing resilience. Solar irrigation improved water access, while dryers and cold storage minimized post-harvest losses. These clean energy solutions mechanized rural systems, reduced drudgery, and strengthened Odisha’s climate adaptation pathway.
