Energy Conservation DOWNOLOAD HERE

The primary objective of PVKN College is the promotion of alternative energy sources to reduce dependence on fossil fuel-based electricity. The college is dedicated to increasing its share of solar energy by generating it through the installation of solar panels on the building's roof.

Solar Energy:

10 KV solar panels have been installed under RUSA grants and connected to the GRID. The utilization of solar power for electricity generation, producing at least 500 units per month, leads to a reduction in the power bill.

Wheeling to the Grid:

The college's energy generation system is connected to the grid for efficient energy distribution, potentially resulting in financial benefits or credits.

Use of LED Bulbs/Power-Efficient Equipment:

Out of 412 traditional lights, 150 have been replaced with energy-efficient LED bulbs to reduce electricity consumption. Equipment and appliances are being upgraded to models with high energy efficiency ratings.

Energy Audits:

PVKN College has held ISO Certification for the implementation of energy-saving practices since 2018.

Employee Awareness Programs:

Employees are educated about the importance of energy conservation and encouraged to use energy responsibly. Tree plantation programs are organized every year , in Thuminda Palayam villages under the Mission Harithandra Pradesh 69th Vanam – Manam Programme. Additionally, an awareness program on "Go Green with Mud Ganesha" was conducted to highlight the ill effects of POP Ganesh idols and to motivate people to use eco-friendly Ganesha idols.

Green Building Design:

Green building principles are incorporated into new constructions or renovations to enhance energy efficiency and sustainability, utilizing environmentally friendly materials and construction techniques. Thulasivanam was established to ensure pure air on the campus.
