Solar Energy Adoption
To promote renewable energy usage, the University has taken measures toward the expansion of the usage of Solar energy across the campus, including:
- Installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels on the rooftops of academic and administrative buildings.
- Gradual expansion of solar energy capacity to reduce dependency on conventional electricity sources. As compared to the year 2022, when we had a capacity of 1345 KwP has been enhanced to 2345 kWp in the year 2025.

Awareness and Capacity Building
To promote responsible energy usage, the University organizes various events such as workshops, sensitization programs, Nukkad Natak, etc., to spread awareness among the stakeholders.
- Energy conservation awareness programs for students and staff.
- Workshops and training sessions on renewable energy and energy-efficient technologies.
- Student engagement initiatives such as energy conservation campaigns.
University's NSS Wing Celebrates Energy Conservation Day
Teerthanker Mahaveer University (TMU), through its active National Service Scheme (NSS) units, is deeply committed to advancing local community outreach for energy efficiency. TMU’s NSS volunteers regularly conduct awareness drives, door-to-door campaigns, and targeted workshops in the surrounding villages and urban areas to educate citizens about the significance of energy conservation and practical steps towards energy efficiency. These outreach programs emphasize the adoption of LED lighting, the benefits of solar energy, and efficient waste management as pathways for sustainable development.
