With reference to The Hindu, 25 August 2009
The hospitality sector in Rajasthan has reportedly vowed before the Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy, that they will steadfastly adopt techniques using alternative energy sources. This comes as excellent news, especially when the hospitality sector is a major chunk of Rajasthan’s economy, and shows signs of blooming even more in the future.
The hotel industry has realized the use of green energy as the need of the hour, and the sun-rich state is now going to show the way to all others. Alternative energy devices like solar water heater, solar air-conditioning, geo-thermal cooling and adaptation of wind energy devices are a part of the proposal. With water from the Indira Gandhi Canal now available in the city, solar panels can be easily used for heating water.
The proposal also talks about solar hot water systems to heat water for rooms, swimming pools, laundry, solar steam cooking systems and solar lighting systems. In a energy and water intensive industry like the hotel industry, such measures will certainly go a long way!
