Biju Patnaik Energy ParknBiju PatnaiknEnergy Park, Bhubaneswar is a rare blend ofndown to earth technologies and starknamusement. Conceptualized and designed bynOREDA, the park provides volumes ofninformation on application of renewable energyntechnologies, energy conservation and energynefficiency. Depictions through workingnmodels, live demonstrations, interactive medianand audio-visual presentations closelyncommunicate with the thought process of thenvisitors and provide them a deep insight intonthe scientific, economic and societal aspects ofnenergy.nThe park was set up under Special AreanDemonstration Programme (SADP) of Ministrynof New & Renewable Energy (MNRE). MNREnsanctioned setting up of State level Energy Parknat a total Share of Rs. 60,76,000/- in 2001-2002.nThough initially the park was supposed to benlocated in Kalinga Nagar, un favorablentopography of the area compelled OREDA tonshift to a new location at Khandagiri.nBhubaneswar Development Authority (BDA)nprovide 4 Acre of land on the south west side ofnthe existing Kharvel Park, Khandagiri.nHowever, due to encroachment by the adjacentnplots only 2.5 Acre was actually available fornsetting up the park.
