@RockefellerFdn@washingtonpost It's quite unfortunate to see such biased reporting. Thank you @RockefellerFdn for highlighting the facts. To add, in my interview, I extensively highlighted well-managed public mini-grids in India, in places like Chhattisgarh. However, the article only talks about the gaps.
@AmitAgarwal why has @amazonIN lately started delivering coconuts wrapped in so much plastic? For years, they were delivered without packaging. Take some inspiration from @bigbasket_com on reduced and sustainable packaging!
@madebygoogle A 15-month-old Pixel 5a bricked! And it seems like many users are facing this issue in the last two weeks itself! Expected much better customer support from @Google
@bahardutt@trvivek@GhoshArunabha Particularly for natural farming, CEEW did an independent evaluation to estimate fertiliser (subsidy) saving due to natural farming adoption in AP. https://t.co/KbQRU2YeIi
@bahardutt@trvivek@GhoshArunabha Sustainable farming has many avatars. Last year, CEEW analysed 16 different sustainable farming practices, their scale of adoption and their documented impacts. https://t.co/A0csoWopL9
#Covid has hit the most vulnerable the hardest. The story is, unfortunately, the same with #climatechange. How can we keep the most vulnerable at the heart of our recovery plans?
@mrcleantech and I share lessons from India.

@anindya_u@smartpowerorg 4. Focus on mainstreaming a pragmatic framework to transform the #HR performance management in DISCOMs. Incentives drive people. We need the right incentives to transforms DISCOMs, who are run by people! #RoadtoRecovery (4/4)
@anindya_u@smartpowerorg 3. Beyond households focus on rural microenterprises through reliable grid supply and #offgrid solutions, as needed. Rural areas must become the decentralized hub for #valueaddition. Reliable power is critical to achieving the same. #RoadToRecovery (3/n)
@archanakhatriD@anindya_u@smartpowerorg 1. Limited awareness (hence, limited interest); 2. Liming financing, as returns are not immediate. #ESCOs are a solution, but recovery risk from #SMEs is a key challenge for ESCOs.
@lyadhsaab@anindya_u@smartpowerorg Technical losses are about 15-25% in India, not as high as 60%. To bring them down further, better planning of infrastructure is the key. We extend 11 kVA lines for kms where we need 33 kVA and so on.
@anindya_u@smartpowerorg Find convergence with the #DISCOMs. Play on your strengths like reliable service and customer orientation and high revenue recovery, which are often the weaknesses for DISCOMs. I see a perfect opportunity for collaboration there. #RoadToRecovery (1/n)
