Solar energy park

Various cities in India are full of lovely gardens, but none of them can match up to the uniqueness of the solar energy park in Raipur, Chhattisgarh. The energy education park set up by Chhattisgarh renewable energy development agency (creda) at Raipur is a park with a difference. It is a park on the theme of generation and usage of various forms of renewable energy sources, surrounded by beautiful garden with abundance of greenery, colorful flowers, attractive fountains and unique waterfalls. The energy education park at Raipur has been set up to create awareness and educate people in general about the various forms of renewable energy sources. This has been achieved through indoor and outdoor exhibits and through working models, interactive games and quizzes. For toddlers, there are solar operated toy-cars. This park is located approximately 7 kms. From Raipur city on airport road. There are solar cars for children up to age ten. These solar cars have roofs made of a solar cell powering motor through batteries. Another attraction is the solar boat kept in an artificial lake that has been developed in the park. Visitors can enjoy solar/ paddle boats in the lake. The motor of the solar boat is driven by batteries that are charged by solar modules which are mounted on the roof of the boat.
