Questions

Which syllabus does the Energy Conservation and Audit course follow?

It follows the BTEUP (Board of Technical Education, Uttar Pradesh) diploma syllabus for Energy Conservation and Audit (Electrical Engineering, Semester 6). If your own board's or institute's syllabus differs, the centre follows your own syllabus.

Will this help in the semester examination?

Yes. Teaching is unit-wise as per the BTEUP scheme, with previous-year question practice, MCQ tests and doubt sessions before the semester exam.

Does it help for the BEE energy auditor exam?

It builds the basics of tariffs, audits and conservation; the BEE certification exam has its own syllabus and level.
