Cli5 is an effort to get valuable feedback from a wide range of stakeholders about their perceptions about climate education and their suggestions for improving it. It comprises a maximum of five questions, hence the Cli5. In this post, Sumukhi Sreevatsan, General Manager at IMAPAC provides her insights to the questions on climate education. Why do you think most ordinary […]
Clidemy Careers is a new section at Clidemy where we post inputs and insights on career opportunities opening up in the fast growing climate action sector. The Climate Professional Interview is one avenue through which we provide the insight. In this, we interact with professionals working in the climate action domain to get answers to questions that will be of value […]

Climate education and skilling are key components of climate action and will be importantdrivers in its success. Yet, climate education is currently in its nascent stages, is highlyineffective and fragmented. Cli5 is an effort to get valuable inputs from a wide range of stakeholders about theirperceptions about climate education and their suggestions for improving it. The Cli5 project comprises collecting […]

All electrons are same, aren’t they? What a strange question! There is a reason for this. And that has got to do with what is called peak load. You see, if the entire world uses electricity at a constant rate, without fluctuations, things could be a lot quieter at power plants. But that’s not the way how electricity is consumed. […]
Here’s an interesting way in which many convenience stores could significantly reduce their peak electricity use from the grid – which can be exacerbated by customer EV charging that is catching up in these stores – through the use of storing electricity in refrigerators and HVAC systems. Quite clever, really.
Geothermal energy typically uses natural geothermal heat reservoirs under the ground. But can we create artificial underground reservoirs for geothermal energy? A research (by the Univ of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign) has validated that we can use old gas wells as geothermal reservoirs. Well, what is this all about? Essentially, you identify an abandoned gas well that has a suitable infrastructure – […]
What the heck are good kilowatts? Turns out that these are nothing but power from good, clean renewable energy sources. Hmmm…
Innovations in thermal energy storage is seeing significant action. And here’s one from Toshiba & Marubeni. A pilot project that these two Japanese giants have developed uses materials such as crushed stone, bricks, molten salt, concrete, and ceramics to store the heat and appears that it can store heat at temperatures above 700 C. That’s interesting!
