Energy conservation through strategic design



Consumption and wastage of electrical energy, food, plastic and paper, solid and organic waste is fundamental in daily life. With a multitude spectrum of applications, the importance of proper utilization and management of it cannot be stressed enough. By taking efficient and smart decisions involving simplistic innovation, we can curb the issue of wastage of electricity, food, and paper. We are trying to do the same on the college level, with necessary steps to be taken to check wastage in the hostels, lecture halls, departments, and the central library.
