Our vision is to transform India via the ReNew India Initiative (RII). RII is the essence of ReNew’s CSR program as we believe that no growth can be meaningful without transforming Human, Social and Natural Capital
RENEW INDIA INITIATIVE (RII)
ReNew India Initiative is focussed on empowering communities by educating and giving them means of livelihood in alignment with ReNew’s Vision and Mission. ReNew India Initiative (RII) is based on three broad indicators of development: Human, Social and Natural capital.
OUR FLAGSHIP PROGRAMS
Smart Village Adopted by ReNew Group (SVARG)
ReNew Power, as part of its Corporate Citizenship, is committed to improving the quality of life in rural India. Expanding its commitment to ensure development reaches the last person in the “Bottom of Pyramid”, the concept of SVARG (Smart Village Adopted by ReNew Group) was developed as a tool towards development based on promoting energy sovereignty by adopting renewable & clean energy as the driver for development.
Water ATM
ReNew Power has installed water ATMs at Ananthsagar and Saidapur to provide clean drinking water to the community in the area. These water ATMs are run by solar power with in-built Reverse Osmosis (RO) and Ultra-Violet (UV) technology. Each of these units have a storage capacity of 5,000 litres and filter 500 litres of water per hour. These ATMs cater to a population of 4,000 from these two villages.
Gifting Warmth
ReNew Power has always believed in the philosophy of ‘Giving’ and aims to bring a difference to the lives of those who are in need. To help those on the streets shivering in harsh winters, ReNew Power started an initiative named as Gift Warmth to distribute blankets to the needy on the streets of Delhi NCR.
Education-Hub
ReNew Power has started E-Learning classes for people in remote areas. This is ReNew Power’s idea to bring technology to the fore and make education accessible at remote locations. These classes do not have teachers but the study modules are run on computers while the tests are conducted online. This requires minimal manual intervention and can reach out to a large audience at the same time. The classes can be monitored online from a central location.
RENEW SCHOLARSHIP FOR EXCEPTIONAL TALENT (ReSET)
ReNew Scholarship for Exceptional Talent (ReSET) is an initiative with an aim to identify talent from underprivileged sections of the society and give them a platform to develop their skills, talent and passion.
EMPLOYEE VOLUNTEERING
Employee Volunteerism forms an important part of all the activities undertaken by ReNew Power under the gamut of corporate social responsibility. At ReNew Power employees are encouraged to volunteer their time and talent in various CSR activities organized both at the corporate level as well as at the site level on a regular basis. Apart from these employees are made aware about various CSR initiatives undertaken by the organizations through different internal communications.
