Last few days the media has been abuzz with the prediction of disastrous consequences of environmental pollution within the very foreseeable future. Amidst the usual concern for the environment and the preservation of the nature has come a very concrete and genuine threat, as expressed by a world renown environmentalist Sir Nicholas Stern that our actions over the coming few decades could create risks of major disruption to economic and social activity, on a scale similar to those associated with the great wars and the economic depression of the first half of the 20th Century.

In the above light, the SIMS campus in Lonavala is an outstanding example of our deep commitment for the preservation of the environment.

The pre-sea campus is a role model of how the young cadets would be trained and groomed to care and value the preservation of environment we live in. The campus sites the biggest solar power project in Asia with the solar energy produced illuminating the campus and various utilities. The entire south-facing wall of the massive rectangular workshop houses 60 KW of solar cells. The water heater atop the cadet hostel is operated through solar energy.
