Amrita Sphuranam — Energy Livelihoods
Solar Irrigation & Agri-Processing

Builds community capacity to harness clean energy as an economic asset — solar agri-processing units, irrigation pumps and enterprise tools reduce input costs and extend post-harvest value chains. Women’s SHGs trained as energy entrepreneurs operating solar micro-utilities, with Schneider Electric (energy management) and TAFE (agri-machinery).
Thermally-optimised biogas units for cold agro-climatic zones where conventional digesters fail seasonally. Converts agricultural and animal waste into clean cooking fuel and nutrient-rich organic slurry — reducing LPG, fertiliser and biomass-carbon costs; integrated with TAFE agri-equipment.
Community-led programme targeting methane from paddy (AWD) and livestock through improved feed and manure management. Demonstration farms model emission-efficient agriculture, targeting a 20% reduction in methane intensity and laying groundwork for community carbon-credit generation and SHG benefit-sharing.
AI-powered digital-twin modelling of village climate and energy systems — predictive planning for low-carbon transitions, optimised renewable deployment and simulated carbon-reduction pathways. An evidence-based rural investment planning tool for state governments and community energy enterprises.
