New Delhi, May 15 : Xiaomi India announced a new mission, in partnership with global philanthropy network United Way India, to empower five villages in the Palghar district of Maharashtra by providing them with effortless access to sustainable energy.

The primary objective is to equip these villages with reliable, sustainable energy through Solar Photovoltaic (Solar PV) infrastructure.
The initiative's aim is to promote clean and renewable energy by setting up a sustainable solar grid system in villages, which in turn will provide a consistent and reliable electricity supply and enhance the quality of life for villagers, said Xiaomi India.
By providing access to reliable and affordable electricity, this intervention will enable multiple efforts such as zero wood/zero fossil fuel cooking, clean water, sustainable agriculture, and the fulfilment of SDG goals leading to net-zero energy communities for over 1,500 people.
"At Xiaomi, we strive to create a brighter future for all, and we're proud to join hands with United Way India to turn that belief into a reality. Our solar electrification project is a step towards promoting green energy that is not only sustainable but also significantly reduces the impact on the environment," said Muralikrishnan B, President at Xiaomi India.
