Hyderabad: Indian School of Business (ISB) in collaboration with Shakti Foundation is going to launch a first of its kind incubation programme for non-profits in the clean energy space. The lab aims to identify individuals and thinkers with big, audacious ideas to create research based policy impact in India and build their concepts into scalable institutions.

The Clean Energy Lab invites entries from non-profits, working in the areas of renewable energy, climate change and energy efficiency. The registerations for this program will be closed by November 15, 2017.

Prof. Rajendra Srivastava, Dean, ISB, said, “Clean energy is the need of the future and India is already making a mark globally for its initiatives in this space. The government has drawn up an ambitious agenda to become self-reliant in generating renewable energy by 2022.’’ The yearlong incubation programme will be commenced in January 2018 and will include dedicated mentorship with assigned experts, capacity building and training sessions and a multitude of opportunities to network and partner with potential collaborators.
