Abstract

This paper presents a small scale case study of the energy scenario in N.I.T. Silchar. A sector wise analysis is carried out and a proposal has been put forward for implementation in order to conserve energy and thus bring down the related expenses as well as the consumption. A cost comparison between the existing power consumption and the conditions that will prevail if the proposal is implemented, thus proving that the proposal is efficient from both the economic and energy point of view.
