Bangalore, 23/3: Central PSU Power Finance Corporation Limited (PFC) has partnered with the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) to establish a new facility to house the Interdisciplinary Centre for Energy Research (ICER).
The state-of-the-art building, estimated to cost Rs 60 crore and to be constructed over two years, will foster fundamental and applied research across energy-related areas with a special focus on green hydrogen generation, IISc said. It will house labs, seminar rooms, classrooms, faculty rooms and facilities for developing energy-related products and prototypes.
“The support from PFC comes at an opportune time when countries across the globe are focusing on net zero technologies to mitigate the environmental impact of conventional energy generation,” IISc said.
