NEW DELHI, July 10 (Xinhua) -- Solar energy will be a medium of energy needs of the 21st century because solar power is "sure, pure and secure," said Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday while dedicating the 750 megawatt (MW) solar power project in the central state of Madhya Pradesh.

Further elaborating, Modi said that solar power is "sure" because of the continuous supply of energy from the Sun, "pure" as it is environment friendly, and "secure" because it is a secure source for our energy needs.

He said that the solar power project will make the entire region a major hub for pure and clean energy in this decade, and the biggest beneficiaries would be the poor, the middle class, the tribesmen and the farmers of Madhya Pradesh.

It will also supply power to Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), along with the entire region surrounding Rewa district of Madhya Pradesh.

"Very soon Madhya Pradesh would be the main center of solar energy in the country, as such major projects are in progress in the state's other areas, including Neemuch, Shajapur, Chattarpur and Omkareshwar," added Modi. Enditem
