Welspun Energy has entered into a partnership with Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS) for exchange of knowledge and skills development in renewable energy industry.

Both institutes will jointly develop and organise workshops, seminars and conferences for knowledge sharing, said a press release issued by Welspun.

The company will offer internships and placements for helping students develop practical know-how about this upcoming industry.

The company has committed to set up a corpus for offering scholarships to five outstanding students.  

Students will also get an opportunity to visit Welspun Energy’s solar and wind power plants across the country. Senior executives at Welspun Energy will engage with students of NMIMS through fixed-term visiting assignments by lecturing on the nuances of this sector.

Sindoor Mittal, Director, Welspun Energy Ltd said, “The idea is to make renewable energy industry more accessible to the younger generation and help young graduates acclimatize to become fully effective employees in a short time span.”

Rajan Saxena, Vice Chancellor, NMIMS, said, “While certain knowledge and skills are transferable, there are sector specific skills unique to renewable energy which will need to be developed. The partnership will help conceptualise and deliver highly specialised programs at NMIMS.”

Over 21,8036 million tonnes of carbon emissions are annually mitigated through Welspun Energy’s 131 MW commissioned renewable capacity. WEL will be commissioning a 150 MW solar project in Neemuch, Madhya Pradesh this year and an aggregate 200 MW capacity is presently under development, the release added.
