Anandibai Damodar Kale Degree College, Borivali (W) has an Energy Usage Policy that aims to manage energy in a way that minimizes its impact on the environment. In order to lighten the load on the government and identify alternative natural resources to address the energy issue, the strategy suggests investigating renewable energy sources. Every element of the organization is required to abide by this energy and environmental policy. It will assist us in realizing our obligations and committing to the protection and responsible use of natural resources by assisting us in integrating efficiency and environmental consciousness into our daily operations. 

 Objectives:

• To evaluate our energy use and quantify the environmental effects of it.
• To save energy by installing LED lighting and to implement further steps to consistently enhance our energy usage.
• To promote the adoption of cutting-edge technologies to reduce noise, pollutants into the    atmosphere, and energy use, especially from our fleets of vehicles.
• To actively collaborate with local organizations in the fields of the environment, energy efficiency, and sustainable development, as well as to have conversations with government agencies, municipal corporations, and the affiliated institution.
