Delhi Metro
Delhi Metro’s Blue Line, which connects Yamuna Bank with Vaishali in Ghaziabad, has received carbon-neutral certification, officials announced on Sunday. This achievement highlights the DMRC’s dedication to reducing its carbon footprint and combating climate change.
The certification comes after the DMRC previously attained carbon-neutral status for its corporate headquarters at Delhi Metro Bhawan and the staff quarters in Sector-50, Noida.
In line with the government’s target of achieving net zero emissions by 2070, the DMRC is making significant progress toward carbon neutrality by incorporating advanced environmental practices.
The DMRC has successfully reduced its carbon footprint through various sustainable and eco-friendly initiatives, including the implementation of energy-efficient technologies like regenerative braking in rolling stock, increased use of renewable energy in operations, the construction of rainwater harvesting pits, and effective waste management systems.
