Improve the public transport so that people are attracted to travel with public transport more and more. So less private vehicles are used and it will reduce the energy consumption considerably. Delhi Metro is an excellent example of success. While General Coaches of Indian Railway are needed to be taken care of.A lot of space is required in there. We can add few more general coaches. Even at the cost of reservation coaches it will benefit a lot.

Government provide cars to many of it employees. Government also pays for petrol and maintenance of these cars. Since most of the times these cars are used in city only therefore it makes sense to buy all electric car for government employee use. Latest car from Nissan has range of 70 miles (11o km) per battery charge. By switching to all electric car government can save lots of money on petrol and also reduce the pollution.

Encourage Hybrid vehicles in India. Typical Hybrid vehicle (vehicle that runs both on petrol and electric motor) provide double the mileage as compared to petrol vehicle. We can reduce our oil import bill to half if everyone adopts to hybrid vehicles. Since hybrid vehicle cost more therefore government should encourage car manufactures to build more component in India and provide tax benefit for any company taking lead on same. Also discount vehicle reg for hybrid vehicle.

After solar energy another option is wind energy synchronization of both is more beneficial as either sun or wind available for 365 day's we never concentrate on solar and wind energy only wind mill we install is beneficial to corporate remedies 1 initiative to utilize in big colonies shopping complex apartment buildings compulsory with rain harvesting will always utilize for small power generation 2 capital costs should be less instead given subsidy 3 users friendly technology to introduce

A smart grid of solar roads could reduce pollution, improve the economy, and have the potential to produce three times the amount of power. If we can have worlds biggest solar fields then why not solar roads. http://www.techrepublic.com/article/how-solar-roadways-plans-to-create-smart-roads-to-produce-clean-energy-and-save-lives-and-money/

Replacing all street lights, stadiums, public lighting systems with led lights and solar system. Make use of public buildings for solar power generation on its roofs and encourage unemployed youth to take part in it by providing loans so that they are no longer be job seekers but they will be job creators.

1. We have thousands of KMs of national highways and on those highways majority vehicles are on the speed of 80KMs. so if we install wind mill of lower hight then we can generate thousands of megawatt of power free of cost. 2. For High rise buildings there must be rule that all roof must be covered by solar panel and at least one wind mill if the height of building is more than 25mtrs.
