Introduction
Centre
for Energy Technology at University College of Engineering, Osmania
University was established during November 1997 with the objective of
promoting New and Renewable Sources of Energy. Energy is a vital input for
economic and social development. Confined concern on the depletion of
fossil fuel reserves and detrimental effects of conventional energy
sources on environment makes it imperative to maximize the use of
renewable energy sources which are economically viable and environmentally
friendly and adoption of environmentally friendly frontier technologies.
The Centre aims at development and popularization of such technologies.
