Energy Efficiency in Buildings

shas3n - 20-MAY-2008

As the summer months progress and our hydro-electric reservoirs dry down, along comes the dreaded load-shedding. While it is true that the demand for electricity is far greater than the supply, I guess there is surely something we can do to shorten this gap from the supply end. For this post, I would skip the issues with ‘leakage’ or electricity and ‘grid inefficiency’ and would discuss about the technical and policy aspects at the end-user level. I hope you will be able to add your inputs and we can get the required policy changes through collective lobbying. (Image Courtesy jalalspage)

Shifting Bangalore's Burden To Other Cities

City.Zen - 20-MAY-2008

One solution to Bangalore's problems is shifting of some of its burden on to other cities. This has been recognized by both the government and the companies both of whom have been working at it.

  • What are the factors which help a company to decide upon a location?

Hyderabad flyover collapse: engineering gone bad?

shas3n - 14-SEP-2007

The recent collapse of a Flyover under construction at Hyderabad is indeed a wake-up call for all those who are involved in building and maintaining flyovers. It also underscores the need for active watchdog efforts from citizens that could have prevented this and other similar disasters. I received a PPT file with a few photos of the section that collapsed. (See attached file).
