SOLAR POWERED, GREEN AND CLEAN CAMPUS

VJCET champions sustainability through solar power, rainwater harvesting, and waste recycling. Addressing climate change and energy security, it adopts eco-friendly practices. Solar energy, with 280kW capacity, curbs 420 tons of CO 2 emissions annually and is grid-connected. Rainwater harvesting, using a recharge well and terraced structures, conserves water for groundwater replenishment.

The campus values water bodies, featuring a natural pond and storage tank that meet high-quality standards. Sewage treatment in a 200 cu.m/day plant provides irrigation water, and sludge serves as organic fertilizer. Effective waste management involves segregation, incineration, and proper disposal. An electric vehicle charging station, LED lighting, and energy-efficient design strategies contribute to reduced energy consumption.

A 15 cu.m biogas plant converts organic waste to for cooking and produces useful manure. The campus promotes a green protocol with digital solutions to minimize paper usage. The college's commitment to a paperless office automation system further reduces environmental impact. Lush greenery enhances air quality and comfort. A variety of shrubs and plants create a refreshing, nature-connected atmosphere throughout the beautifully landscaped campus. VJCET showcases a green approach to sustainable development. VJCET's holistic approach demonstrates its dedication to environmental well-being while providing a conducive learning environment.
