Book Details

Energy issues are featured in every form of media on just about every single day. These issues baffle the minds of young and old alike. The internet is a great resource for our Qs and As; but usually either the complexity of the text makes it incomprehensible or the magnitude of the content makes the reader / learner nervous.

This book offers a balanced and well-informed perspective with a discussion about the outlook for the future. Burning issues such as pollution, energy conservation and efficiency, renewable energy, and sustainable living are addressed with expert views and case studies that augment the content and can be used to stimulate debate and aid in classroom. The organized and self-explanatory units provide a balanced and chronological presentation of information. The activities and audits are designed in a way that will create awareness of our surroundings and teach us to work in a team, and in turn help in building a nation with sensitized groups of citizens.

This book is made for distribution under TERI BRPL programme ‘Energy Wise Energy Rise’ only and supported by BSES Rajdhani Power Limited (BRPL).
