UB group calls for policy tweaks to go 100% solar

Fifteen per cent cheaper than grid power is a strong argument for going solar, and the country’s largest liquor manufacturer, United Breweries, has vowed to raise its power demand satisfaction from solar from 15 per cent today, to 50 per cent in the next three years. But while ‘100 per cent renewable’ is a vision, achieving that would depend upon the State Governments coming up with favourable policies, says Shekar Ramamurthy, Managing Director, United Breweries Ltd.
