Apraava Energy completed a solar electrification plant to supply the energy needs for more than 3,687 households in Madhya Pradesh’s Satpura Transco Private Ltd.
In 2020, it launched the project with SELCO Foundation. They focused on 14 villages in the Seoni Malwa district of Hoshangabad and Ashta district in Sehore. Inconsistent power supply caused multiple problems for the villagers.
