Bengaluru: BITS Pilani has opened a new research center called the Advanced Research Centre for Sustainable Energy Technologies (ARCSET). This center aims to find new clean energy solutions to help with global energy problems. It focuses on important areas like producing and storing hydrogen, creating biofuels, using renewable energy, and capturing carbon emissions.
ARCSET is designed to promote teamwork between universities and businesses to create affordable and effective answers to reduce carbon emissions. Its main goals are to provide secure energy, fight climate change, and make sure everyone can access clean energy resources.
Professor Ramgopal Rao, the Vice-Chancellor of BITS Pilani, said, “ARCSET shows our commitment to solving the big challenge of moving towards sustainable energy. We are working with industries to create solutions that not only cut down carbon emissions but also make clean energy available to all.”
This center also focuses on eight important topics like renewable energy, hydrogen technology, electric transportation (e-mobility), and recycling efforts. ARCSET is teaming up with industry experts, start-ups, and decision-makers to create strong solutions.
They will use advanced methods like computer modeling, artificial intelligence (AI), and quick experimentation to work on projects like Hydrogen Valley and research ways to turn carbon dioxide into useful products. These efforts will help connect schools, businesses, and start-ups to speed up India’s progress towards reducing pollution and achieving net-zero emissions.
