Annual Green Technology Challenge

Tarayana Foundation has partnered with the College of Science and Technology, Royal University of Bhutan in fostering Technology Innovation. The Foundation conducts an annual contest among the final year engineering students in developing a green technology best suited to Bhutanese conditions. So far, the partnership has resulted in solar dryers, low-cost insulation material, low-cost solar fencing and low-cost solar water heating related to clean energy and energy efficiency. While the call for both male and female students to take part in the Foundation saw fewer female participants as compared to male.
