ISEES Young Scientist Award
- 2024
Preamble
The International Society for Energy,
Environment, and Sustainability was founded at IIT Kanpur in January 2014 to
spread knowledge in Energy, Environment, Sustainability, and Combustion. It
is a body of the most distinguished engineers and scientists from the entire
spectrum of the engineering professions in the Government, R&D Laboratories,
Academia, and Industry from/within India and abroad.
In this changing environmental scenario, the time has come when more
emphasis has to be laid on renewable energy resources. Moreover, in this
dynamic scenario of swelling competition and reducing profits, staying
environmentally responsible can be highly challenging for any organization.
More efficient systems must be developed to meet the increasing energy
demands keeping in mind its environmental impact. People have to become more
aware and concerned about the environmental challenges which the world is
facing today to make it a better place for us and our future generations.
The Society aims to spread knowledge in the areas mentioned above among
people and make them more aware of the environmental challenges which the
world is facing today. Society is involved in various activities in the
domains mentioned above, like workshops, seminars, conferences, etc. The
Society also recognizes young scientists and engineers for contributing to
this field. To promote the pursuit of excellence in the field of ‘Energy and
environmental sustainability,’ the Society instituted the ISEES Young
Scientist Award in 2015. The executive committee makes the selection for
