Dhordo Becomes Gujarat’s First 100% Solar-Powered Village
Dhordo, the gateway to the White Rann of Kutch and a globally recognized tourist destination, has achieved a historic milestone by becoming Gujarat’s fourth and Kutch’s first village to be fully powered by solar energy.
This transformation marks a significant step towards clean and sustainable energy, reducing dependency on conventional electricity and setting an inspiring example for rural development. With solar panels installed across households and community spaces, Dhordo now generates its own power, ensuring energy security, cost savings, and a greener future.
Known worldwide for the Rann Utsav and its unique cultural heritage, Dhordo has once again placed itself on the global map—not only as a hub of art, craft, and tourism but now also as a model for sustainable living.
This initiative highlights Gujarat’s commitment to renewable energy and showcases how villages can lead the way in building a sustainable tomorrow.
