Thinking – sensibly, rationally and reasonably


Global warming is not an unheard topic today. There have been movies released on this subject to boost the awareness level amongst the world citizens. Be it be An Inconvenient Truth by Al Gore or 11th Hour by Leonardo De Caprio, the movie carried a strong message of the consequences of the human negligence towards the Mother Nature.

The energy requirement in India is just scaling up. Renewable source of energy is a concept yet to catch up to its potential. Subjects like green and clean environment, energy conservation have been close to my heart for a decade. There is so much we can do as an individual.

Power “less”

40 hrs per week, 2 hrs per day and ½ hrs per day….these are the details of scheduled power cuts in states of Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Kerala respectively. On other hand, Bangalore is facing an acute shortage of diesel. The spin to the story is that majority of the electricity in Karnataka gets generated by hydro power. The absence of sufficient rainfall is causing shortage in power at source which in turn results in unscheduled / scheduled power cuts which prompts people to use generators, which needs diesel to run. Tada!!!

Ener-G

From a technology company where everyday all I heard was something related to coding, software, security et all to a renewable energy company, where each day what I hear is subjects like sustainable development, environment, non conventional sources of energy, systems…. it has been an interesting transition from a software company to SunTechnics.

I have been reading about the energy sector and thought would share my views…

We all dream of being citizens of a self sufficient country. We felt proud on going nuclear. But, as far as energy scenario in India is concerned, there is a long way to go.
