2. PROBLEM STATEMENT
As we were thinking about
various issues and problems
faced by the people in our
community, it occurred to us
that constant electricity
failure and load shedding is
the most unfortunate
dilemma which has hindered
the quality of living .
Now, the challenge was to
take an initiative to
overcome the crisis that has
marred almost every
individuals life regionally.

METHODOLOGY:
Approximately 150 brochures/ flyers
were distributed amongst the parents to
brief them on effective energy
utilization.
The next day, we made many posters,
banners and also performed a skit to
bring awareness amongst students.
Survey forms were distributed to
estimate the average electricity
consumptions at homes on regular
basis.

6. JOINING HANDS… GOING A STEP
FURTHER
Design for Change
“Save Energy”
We took an initiative to extend
our awareness campaign and
promote the idea in
Cambridge II campus as well,
so as to have a joint venture
and work in collaboration for a
better and an effective
outcome.

7. DISAPPOINTMENT!
To bring about
change it always
takes time!
We went on, in
search of a positive
response…..
We all were highly
disappointed because
the students did not
fill up the form.

8. TRYING AGAIN!
…our teacher motivated us that its
not the end!
She raised our hopes, we worked
harder to the best of our ability.
We restarted campaigning all over
again;
distributed the forms and gave a
lecture for about 15 minutes in each
class.
 involved parents as well by
sending them a circular asking them
to help their child to fill up the forms.
Finally we managed………….
to get a positive response from 500
families not individuals….

9. ANALYSING AND COMPILING
THE DATA
Design for Change
“Save Energy”
The data forms were
analyzed and the initial and
final meter readings were
recorded on the survey
forms to draw the difference
between the two.
The final conclusion was
drawn and we achieved a
remarkable output and
were able to save 1961 units
of electrical energy in just one day.

13. NOT to stop here!
Solution to this problem
demands continuous smart
use of energy which can
make our future bright
So………
We decided NOT TO STOP
HERE and make a habit by
practicing this activity at least
twice a month.
We also have plans to
introduce the ENERGY
SAVING DAY in other
branches of Beaconhouse as
well as in other schools.
