YCET faculty delivered talk on “Efficient Utilization of Electrical Energy”

Er. Loveneesh Talwar, HoD, Electrical Engineering Department of Yogananda College of Engineering & Technology ( YCET ) has been invited by Tesla Technocrats of the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Jayalakshmi Institute of Technology, Chennai to conduct a webinar on “Efficient Utilization of Electrical Energy”. “Hard work never brings fatigue; it brings satisfaction” believing this quote Er. Loveneesh Talwar conducted this webinar on April 15,2021.
Efficient utilization of energy resource is not only conservational, it also saves capital investment. Electric energy occupies the top grade in the energy hierarchy. It finds innumerable uses in home, industry, agriculture and in transport. In this webinar he also emphasized on Energy Audit. An Energy Audit is an inspection survey and an analysis of energy flows for energy conservation in a building. It may include a process or system to reduce the amount of energy input into the system without negatively affecting the output. Energy conservation is the effort made to reduce the consumption of energy by using less energy services. This can be achieved either by using energy more efficiently or by reducing the amount of service used. Energy conservation is a part of the concept of Eco-sufficiency. Energy is of two types Conventional and Non-conventional but as the time passes by, the generation rate of electricity is very low compared to our consumption rate. Due to which we are focusing on non conventional resources. We can conserve energy by using two methods one is by reducing the use of energy efficient devices and secondly we can use energy optimum techniques to conserve energy. He also showed one of his case studies in which he represented how to conserve energy in domestic sector by using 4 Energy Conservation Methods and what is its payback period.

At the end, Er. Lovneesh Talwar thanked Dr. N. Sivakumar, HoD, EEE and Mr. M.Chandrasekaran, Associate Professor for inviting him and giving him opportunity to deliver guest lecture. The event adorned by the Principal, JIT, Dr. S. Venkatesan. Overall the exposure to knowledge and modern trends proved many folds beneficial to those who took this opportunity in the fullest and motivated other faculty to participate in such events. He also mentioned the immense gratitude for the management of YCET and for Dr. A. K. Srivastava, Director YCET.
