Hirotec SWM at Keeranatham
At Keeranatham, the waste management system was struggling due to the growing floating population and IT corridor traffic, resulting in widespread litter. Hirotec, through its CSR initiative in collaboration with RAAC, launched a cleanup project on September 1, 2023. With electric vehicles, volunteer support, and community participation in waste segregation, the initiative transformed the area. Former litter zones now flourish with flowering plants, setting a benchmark for sustainable urban waste management.

Rural Electrification Alanthurai
In response to the lack of electricity in rural Coimbatore, RAAC initiated electrification efforts following a request from local authorities. The first phase in Pachinampathi enabled 31 households to pay the required TNEB security deposit. In Moongilmadai, 29 more homes are set to benefit through upcoming sponsorships. Also, in two tribal hamlets, 19 out of 66 houses have already received power, with funding secured to complete the remaining connections shortly.
