Consumer electrical safety in Tamil Nadu remains a significant public safety challenge, with defective consumer-side installations accounting for the overwhelming majority of electrical deaths in the state.
As part of its efforts to strengthen green skills among young people, Citizen consumer and civic Action Group (CAG) organised a Solar Orientation and Career Awareness Programme at Thakkar Baba Industrial Training Institute (ITI), T. Nagar, Chennai, on Wednesday, 2 September 2026. The programme aimed to give students a basic understanding of rooftop solar technology, make them aware of job opportunities in the renewable energy sector, and encourage them to prepare for careers in one of India's fastest-growing industries.
This report highlights CAG’s E-STEAM Energy Club Programme, which engaged Classes 6–8 students in hands-on energy learning across two Chennai schools. Through experiments, energy audits, model-building and renewable energy activities, students explored energy use, efficiency, conservation and e-waste. The programme strengthened practical skills, creativity and teamwork while encouraging students to become informed and responsible energy users.
This report examines how air pollution affects outdoor workers across Chennai, focusing on exposure, health sensitivity, socio-economic vulnerability and adaptive capacity. It finds that semi-formal workers are the most vulnerable, while informal workers face significant structural challenges despite stronger coping capacity. The report highlights the need for worker-centred health protection, social support and inclusive urban planning to address air pollution risks.
