Preservation of the environment has become of cardinal importance in view of the rapid industrialization of Haryana.  Non conventional Energy Sources are an excellent medium for improving the access of the people to rechargeable energy as well as maintaining the ecological balance.  In this context,  there is an urgent need to popularise technologies and equipments which harness energy through sources other than the traditional sources of energy like petrol, diesel, furnance oil, coal etc.  The Government of India created a separate Ministry for promoting Non-Conventional Sources of Energy and urged the State Governments to consider setting up a separate Department in the States on similar lines.  With a view, therefore, to give an impetus to technologies relating to the non-conventional energy sources and energy conservation in Haryana, a great need was felt for building up significant institutional infrastructure in the area of non-conventional energy sources.  For achieving these aims and objectives and to effectively administer and control the said infrastructure as well as to monitor its progress, a separate department of Non conventional Energy Sources renamed as Renewable Energy Department was created by the State Government in the year 1995.
