Energy conservation is an important factor in lessening climate change. It helps the replacement of non-renewable resources with renewable energy. Energy conservation is frequently the most cost-effective solution to energy shortages, as well as a more ecologically friendly option than increasing energy output. Various activities like painting, essay competition, slogans were organised for employees, family members and children of the township.
In India, National Energy Conservation Day is observed every year on Wednesday to raise awareness about the significance of energy and the need of conserving energy by using less energy.
