Scope of the Policy
The policies and initiatives for the conservation of energy, environment and green campus activities will develop a positive attitude towards nature and will create challenge for protecting our resources amongst the stakeholders.
Objectives of the Policy
1. To make stakeholders understand the importance of environment and its problem areas.
2. To educate and create awareness amongst public.
3. To protect and conserve ecological systems and resources within and outside the campus.
4. To work with the local community to enhance the environment protection practices and energy conservation strategies among the rural community.
Policies at a Glance
Environment-friendliness and energy harvesting are of prime interest today which are the key factors in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for any organization. Keeping these factors in specifying energy policy
we presume that it is in accordance with the prescriptions of National Institution for Transforming India (NITI) Aayog with reference to support for renewable energy resources. Another factor of significance is rapidly and dynamically increasing energy demand. Since conventional sources cannot meet this requirement easily, the college has incorporated establishment of alternate energy sources in the form of establishment of 300 Watt rooftop Solar Power Panels.
STATEMENT
- The Energy policy of GMSM Mahavidyalaya monitor, conserve and manage the energy needs of the campus with the growth in the energy demands of the institute.
- It is the responsibility of the institute in creating awareness among the students and staff about the energy conservation measures.
- Maintain the efficiently utilize the Electrical Energy with maximum utilization of Renewable solar power
