One of the crucial facets of the natural resources is Energy. TPCDT is consistently working towards increasing the access to clean energy amongst communities.

Trust contributed 10% of the total project cost, which includes 223 connections, benefiting 1350 tribe members. The initiative has also helped ease the lives of women who no longer need to travel long distance for procuring firewood.
  • Biogas: The tribal hamlets of Thokarwadi and Shirwata lake region in Maval, Pune, faced the problem of sourcing fuel for cooking. The high dependency on firewood resulted in fast depleting forest cover. Trust in collaboration with Govt and the community installed 30 biogas units, of the total 100 proposed.
