Sustainable Energy and Environment Quiz 2011 (posted on September ,2011)
The 3rd edition of the National Level Sustainable Energy and Environment
took place in an exciting as well as pulsating manner with around 200 teams
participating from different colleges. 

The topics covered in this edition of
the Quiz were ranging from Renewable Energy sources, Climate change,
Environmental Pollution to Fossil fuels, Power generation, Sustainable
Development and Energy Efficiency. 

With the clock striking 2pm the first
round (written round) began. The time allotted for this round was an hour,
the questions being multiple-choice.

The top 5 teams were selected for a direct entry into the second round and
the next 7 teams were selected for a buzzer round with 1 team joining the
top 5 and the rest relegated.It became very clear that the elimination round
got the audiences blood pumping.

With the elimination round won by Divanshu & Shubham, the 6 teams
were decided & the 2nd round began. 

-The 2nd round had 2 phases-the
first in which the each team was shown a famous personality and had
to recognize him/her.

-The second in which they were shown a plant/
building significant in the field of energy and had to answer a question based
on it. 

-The 3rd round (buzzer round) turned out to be the game
changer. The final round was the rapid fire round which got everybody on
their feet. 

The first prize was won by Mukesh(Kautilya Institute of Technology) & Ankit(MNIT). The second place was a
tie between Abhishek & Anurag and Phuntsho & Sandrup(both teams from MNIT) .
All of the 12 participants (6teams) were given Solar Lanterns and solar panels which they lit
on stage and took a pledge to contribute their bit in the field of sustainable energy
and prevention of environmental pollution. 

With our main objective of this
edition accomplished i.e., to spread awareness as well as to provide a stage
for appreciation and thoughtful discussion on different topics related to
Sustainable Energy & Environment we hope that the next edition would
be just as inspiring.

Hey everyone! We  are finally able to form The Energy Club which will encapsulate the Energy Headlines Newsletter , The EH-Blog , and all the events that was previously undertaken by the Energy Headlines Team under the guidance of JTM Sir.
Here are some salient features of the club:

-No college intervention (this is not an official club but a hobby club)

-It will function independently like the Energy Headlines Publication work does.

-This is meant for the students who have passion for the 3Es (Energy, Environment and Earth).

- You get to be a part of a strong alumni network.

-You get the chance to organize various events like Quiz, Talk Shows, Movie Screenings, and even get to work in the team of Energy Headlines and the EH-Blog.

-Sharing of information, generating ideas, taking a stride towards innovation are some of the hard core motives of this club.

- Create awareness session about Green Energy, Energy conservation and all the burning topics that are relevant to energy!

-A chance to visit various national and international summits and conferences. Few members visited DIREC(Delhi International Renewable Energy Conference) last year.

Frankly speaking, this is a hobby club; you can be a part of it because you like doing this! So please , don't expect any sort of academic benefits here!

All we can promise is, come , be a part of the club , and you will be able to observe  the incentives yourself!
