Processes for Carbon Management or Reduction of Carbon Dioxide Emissions

The university is committed to maintaining a sustainable and energy-efficient campus by progressively upgrading its power systems and promoting responsible energy use.

To ensure minimal environmental impact from backup power generation, all Diesel Generator (DG) sets on campus have been equipped with exhaust chimneys to safely discharge emissions away from the campus environment. Further, the university is in the process of installing retrofitment devices on DG sets to minimize harmful emissions, including particulate matter and carbon dioxide (CO₂). These retrofits are aligned with the latest environmental standards and are part of the institution’s strategy to move toward cleaner and more efficient backup energy systems.

In parallel, the university is actively transitioning its internal campus transport fleet to electric mobility. Conventional fuel-based vehicles are being replaced with electric mopeds, e-rickshaws, and electric golf carts to facilitate clean and silent movement within the campus. This initiative aims to significantly reduce the university’s carbon footprint, improve air quality, and set an example of sustainable transportation for the wider community.

Energy efficiency is also being promoted through behavioural and operational changes. A new institutional policy titled ‘Electrical Appliance and Usage in Hostel Rooms’ has been introduced to encourage responsible energy consumption among students and residents. This policy outlines guidelines for the use of electrical appliances, promotes energy-efficient devices, and seeks to reduce unnecessary power consumption in residential blocks.

The university also conducts awareness drives and campaigns to promote a culture of energy mindfulness among students, faculty, and staff. All residents are encouraged to turn off lights, fans, and electronic devices when not in use, switch to energy-efficient LED lighting, and activate power-saving modes on computers and appliances. In addition, regular audits and monitoring mechanisms are being introduced to assess energy performance and identify opportunities for further efficiency improvements.

These combined measures reflect the university’s ongoing commitment to reducing its carbon emissions, enhancing energy resilience, and fostering a culture of sustainability through both technological upgrades and behavioural change.
