Low-Carbon Energy Tracking

The primary source of renewable energy at JGU are photovoltaic systems for onsite electricity generation. The solar power system is placed on building rooftops as a part of our net-zero energy building goal. The use of renewable energy reduced reliance power generation through fossil fuels. JGU is committed to improving our renewable energy portfolio

Low-power energy generation tracking targets several UN SDG targets including:

Target 3.9: By 2030, substantially reduce the number of deaths and illnesses from hazardous chemicals and air, water and soil pollution and contamination

Target 7.2: By 2030, increase substantially the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix

Target 7.b: By 2030, expand infrastructure and upgrade technology for supplying modern and sustainable energy services for all in developing countries, in particular least developed countries, small island developing States, and land-locked developing countries, in accordance with their respective programmes of support

Target 11.6: By 2030, reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact of cities, including by paying special attention to air quality and municipal and other waste management

Target 13.2: Integrate climate change measures into national policies, strategies and planning
