The need for alternate energy in dental colleges arises due to various reasons. Firstly, the high energy consumption of dental colleges results in significant energy bills, which can strain the financial resources of the institution. Secondly, conventional energy sources such as fossil fuels are not sustainable and contribute to environmental pollution and climate change. Finally, dental colleges have a responsibility to promote sustainable practices and reduce their carbon footprint.
Alternate energy sources are renewable and do not contribute to environmental pollution or climate change. Moreover, they offer a long-term solution to the energy needs of the institution and can help to future-proof the institution against rising energy costs.
