To catalyze a transformative shift in primary healthcare delivery in Karnataka, this initiative is aimed at equipping 100 public health centers with robust, sustainable energy infrastructure to enhance the quality, accessibility, and reliability of primary healthcare services, particularly maternal and child health, while simultaneously mitigating climate change impacts and fostering a resilient healthcare system. This project seeks to create a replicable model for scaling up sustainable energy interventions across the state, ultimately contributing to improved health outcomes, reduced energy expenditures, and a healthier, more equitable society.

This is in continuation of the “Energy for Health” program launched by SELCO Foundation with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), Govt. of India, State Health Departments and other partners to sustainably power 25,000 last mile healthcare facilities across 12 States in India by 2026. SELCO Foundation in partnership with National Health Mission, Govt. of Karnataka has already powered over 1150 public health centers in Karnataka.
