With rapid urbanisation and industrialisation, we humans have caused a lot of environmental pollution and harms. With demand for energy increasing day by day and renewable resources depleting, one needs to judiciously use the existing resources and develop new technology that calls for alternatives to the present selection and usage of material as well as to reduce recycle and reuse the waste.Participants are expected to work towards building an ideal smart city by addressing problems faced by modern indian cities.They are required to do a case study on any indian city by identifying its major challenges in one of the various sectors mentioned below:
-
Energy
-
Construction
-
Waste disposal/recycle/reuse
-
Water
-
Transport
They are then supposed to chose one of the problems and come up with an idea to tackle this problem in an economic and eco friendly manner using the current know how.
