One hour.
Between 8:30 and 9:30 PM on March 28 every year, the Earth goes dark for one hour. The Earth Hour.
The Earth Hour movement has been running strong for over a decade, inspiring millions to #SwitchOff non-essential electrical devices and spreading the message of sustainable lifestyle. With this symbolic gesture, the movement sparks global conversations on the climate crisis and encourages us to reflect on how we use our natural resources.
This year Tata Power, in association with World Wildlife Fund (WWF) will urge individuals to ‘GIVE UP’ wasteful consumption of electricity and be the ‘Voice for the Planet’. In a press release, Mr. Praveer Sinha, MD & CEO, Tata Power, said, “As India’s largest integrated utility and a leader in renewable energy, Tata Power understands the importance of resource conservation and responsible living. While we are delighted to partner with WWF for this important event that will be celebrated across the world, we also see this as an responsibility to reach out to all our customers, business partners and employees across the world to spread the word about our own brand of sustainable living for a better tomorrow.” Tata Power encourages its customers, partners and employees to take the Earth Hour pledge and participate in the movement.
This initiative is aligned to Tata Power’s core philosophy: Sustainability. The utility’s commitment to sustainability was demonstrated earlier this year, when it launched a nation-wide campaign titled ‘I Have the Power’ to create awareness on the choices it provides to its customers to go green. The campaign highlights the range of smart and sustainable solutions like solar rooftop, EV charging and solar micro-grids that company now offers.
