Department
Established as Centre in 2010 under the aegis of Madanjeet School of Green Energy Technologies has been elevated to Department of Green Energy Technology in 2020 with a vision to promote education and research in environmentally clean methods of energy production, conservation and utilization. The department offers M.Tech. in Green Energy Technology, which is partly supported by the South Asia Foundation (SAF) and research (Ph.D.) in the field of renewable energy & related subjects. The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy has recognized and approved the department as a Nodal Centre. The department promotes research in the fields of all clean sources of energy production, conversion and utilization like solar photovoltaic, solar thermal, energy storage, fuel cells, biofuels, wind energy, ocean energy, chemical energy, applications of nanotechnology for energy conversion, etc. The department has well-trained faculties to teach, offer consultancy and take up research work in many core areas of green energy. The establishment of MOUs with various alternate energy generating firms specializing in photovoltaic, and solar-thermal has taken place. In addition, several MOUs with industries specializing in solar thermal devices and power plant engineering are in the pipeline.
