Preserve the sources of energy.

Energy management has come to be very important today. With experts predicting that in the next 50 years, we may well have exhausted all the natural resources, energy conservation and management has taken on a new meaning. It is in this regard that Philips Electronics, India, has embarked on an ambitious plan, titled “School Contact Programme” (SCP), to educate schoolchildren across the country on the importance of energy management. Through the programme, Philips is hoping to reach children from 580 schools across nine cities.
Lighting experts would interact with students at different levels to educate them about the importance of energy management.
Conserve energy
Specially designed competitions for students so as to make them understand energy management and energy efficient lighting and its importance in today’s context will be part of the programme. Three winners of the competition will be awarded a scholarship of Rs. 1 lakh each. In Bangalore, the programme will be conducted at Camlin High School and BNM School.
