Our Bureau

Kochi, June 30 The Society of Energy Engineers and Managers (SEEM) has unanimously resolved to accelerate efforts on rural electrification through off-grid renewable energy generation using solar, wind, biomass, small hydro, geo thermal and other sustainable energy routes on account of the serious environmental and energy crisis faced by the whole world.

The three-day international workshop on ‘Cleaner production and energy conservations for sustainability’ which held here was of the view that the present challenge faced by the Earth is to make it greener and cleaner before it is passed on to the next generation, without reducing the present level of energy services and certainly expanding on it through a less energy intensive route.

Our sustainable way of natural resources use at far greater rate than what the nature can replenish and the indiscriminate way we add pollutants to the Planet Earth needs to be addressed with top most priority, the workshop noted.
