The state has a long history of hydropower development, and currently has a number of large hydropower projects in operation. However, the state government is also keen to promote renewable energy sources, and has been encouraging the development of micro-hydro projects, solar rooftop installations, and biogas plants.<\/p>\n<p>Micro-hydro projects are small-scale hydropower projects that are typically used to provide electricity to rural communities. They are often located in remote areas where there is no access to the grid, and can provide a reliable source of power for schools, <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> hospitals, and other essential services.<\/p>\n<p>Solar rooftop installations are another type of renewable energy source that is being promoted by the Sikkim government.
