THOOPPUL WELFARE TRUST

Having  got benefit of Solar Power Generation installation in my house in Bengaluru and freedom from paying monthly bills since March 17, 2017 a thought came to my mind as to why others should not  enjoy the benefits. This thought gave birth to two voluntary projects: 1.   Spread awareness to use solar energy which is available in plenty and in       abundance for us.    Started with an awareness session in a Rotary Club       in Chennai Chennai on January 13, 2019.   More such meetings are       in pipeline.   Currently looking for volunteers who can help me in       in spreading awareness in their own locations.

How do they keep track of Export and Import? A. Your existing meter which records your

USER EXPERIENCES : 1.    My own experience :   Feb 1, 2019: Let me share my personal experience of 20 months in Bengaluru,   so that the entire humanity is benefited.   I have saved around Rs. 1 lakh.   which I would have otherwise put in drain.    Yes, I was spending close to Rs. 5,000 per month towards electricity for my villa. I returned to India during 2005 and I am living in this beautiful city of Bengaluru.    While walking around aimlessly, I noticed during 2017 that some serious work was going on in a house nearby.      A plumber could only tell me that something is being done by the owner so that the whole house will be brighter always.     Then only I could realize, after talking to the owner, the power of Solar Energy. I caught hold of the Contractor engaged by the owner and insisted upon him to sign the Agreement with me and make the same arrangement for me on the next day itself.   I even was ready to pay advance money straightaway.     He was polite en
