M.Tech (Renewable Energy Engineering and Management) Programme

Programme Overview

With an increasing energy crisis and prominent ill-effects of global climate change issues, renewable energy has occupied centre stage in national and international affairs in recent years. This has resulted in an increased demand for specialists and engineers in renewable energy with an adequate holistic understanding of technology, its management and allied policy-regulatory framework. There are very few institutes in India that offer a structured programme to cover the diverse range of issues to meet this demand. This gap and required manpower in this sector was also realised by industry and with the support of M/s. SUZLON Energy Ltd., the Department of Energy and Environment was established in 2009.

The M.Tech programme in Renewable Energy Engineering and Management, offered by the Department of Energy and Environment, is intended to fill this gap and provide the much needed human resource capacity in renewable energy technology and its management. The programme is designed to train students not only in renewable energy technology and implementation but also in equally important synergetic areas of energy infrastructure, energy economics and energy policy. The students not only gain classroom-based knowledge but also engage with industries through multiple site visits, minor project and major projects along with numerous specialists’ lectures from industry leaders, academics and policymakers. Through specialized in-depth courses, laboratories and software tools in areas such as solar energy, wind energy, green building, energy policy, energy efficiency etc., the programme enables the students with state-of-art skills and practices in the domain of renewable energy.
