Tamil Nadu's coastal temple has become India's first green energy archaeological site.
This coastal temple is situated in Mamallapuram/Mahabalipuram.
It has the status of UNESCO World Heritage Site.
This achievement has been achieved due to the Green Heritage Project.
Under this project, the energy required to illuminate the temple is generated through solar power plants.
The solar plants will not only illuminate the shore temple but also provide electricity to the newly installed reverse osmosis plant.
To harness the abundant solar energy present in the vicinity of this temple, three solar plants with a capacity of 10 KW each have been strategically installed.
The Shore/Coastal Temple is a historic temple complex located at Mamallapuram (Mahabalipuram) in Tamil Nadu, dedicated to Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu.
