EEE Department Hosts TEDx Talk Screening on Bio-Batteries and Sustainable Energy Infrastructure
On 8th October 2026, the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) at New Horizon College of Engineering organized an engaging TEDx Talk screening session for its 5th-semester students across Sections A and B.
The academic enrichment session featured the intriguing presentation titled “Reshaping Our Energy Infrastructure with Bio Batteries” by Alexander Sohl, originally delivered at TEDxNiendorf. Held in Room B-203 from 1:30 PM to 2:30 PM, the initiative was designed to expose students to cutting-edge ideas in sustainable energy storage and inspire critical thinking around future power technologies.
Coordinated by Ms. Kavitha C. H., Senior Assistant Professor, the screening focused on the core concepts of bio-battery technology and the potential to rethink energy infrastructure through alternative, eco-friendly power solutions. Students followed the presentation via classroom digital displays, exploring how material innovations and environmental priorities actively shape the future of energy supply and grid integration.
The session successfully bridged core electrical and electronics engineering curriculum with real-world public science discourse. Participants gained valuable awareness of sustainable approaches to energy storage while reflecting on the crucial role modern engineers play in developing responsible, next-generation technologies.
Overall, the event provided 5th-semester students with an inspiring lens into the future of power systems, encouraging them to connect foundational engineering principles with emerging innovations aimed at solving global energy challenges.
