Chennai: Of the total energy needs of the country, 40% comes through green sources including non-carbon and non-nuclear, said Governor R N Ravi, reports The Times of India.
He was speaking at the ‘C20 International conference in the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ organised by Chinmaya Mission in Mahabalipuram.
Addressing the gathering, he said, “We are tapping all the possible alternative energy sources like solar and wind and now are focusing on producing energy from waste. We are steadily moving forward in blending ethanol, derived from plants, with diesel. We have already achieved E10 and we will soon achieve E20.”
