New Delhi, July 5 — REC Foundation, the CSR arm of REC Limited, has signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) with the Kaziranga Tiger Conservation Foundation (KTCF) to fund sustainable infrastructure in Kaziranga National Park & Tiger Reserve.
Under the agreement, REC Foundation will provide ₹5.43 crore for the installation of solar power plants and Reverse Osmosis (RO) drinking-water systems across multiple anti-poaching camps. The initiative aims to supply reliable clean energy and safe drinking water to forest personnel, reducing dependence on diesel generators and single-use plastic bottles.
The project is expected to lower the park’s carbon footprint while improving living and working conditions for frontline staff involved in wildlife protection. The solar units will help ensure uninterrupted power supply, while RO systems will provide access to safe water in remote locations.
The MoA was signed by Ms. Sonali Ghosh, IFS, Field Director of Kaziranga and Chairperson of KTCF, and Shri Pradeep Fellows, Executive Director, REC Foundation, in the presence of Shri Jitendra Srivastava, CMD, REC Limited.
