MSEUF promotes energy efficiency and clean energy through local community outreach
Manuel S. Enverga University Foundation MSEUF strengthened community awareness of energy efficiency and clean energy in 2025 through educational outreach activities involving law enforcement personnel, students, educators, and local community representatives.
Through the technical expertise of its General Services Department (GSD), the University contributed to energy education beyond its campus by sharing practical knowledge on responsible electricity consumption, energy conservation, and renewable energy technologies.
These initiatives supported the University's commitment to promoting informed energy choices and extending technical knowledge to communities and institutions that can benefit from sustainable energy practices.
Promoting energy efficiency among law enforcement personnel
On April 26, 2025, MSEUF Electrical Engineer and Certified Energy Manager Engr. Mark Nel Inojosa served as a resource speaker in an educational engagement with personnel of the Philippine National Police (PNP).
The engagement provided an opportunity to discuss energy efficiency, clean energy awareness, and responsible energy consumption with law enforcement personnel outside the University.

By bringing energy-related knowledge to public service personnel, MSEUF extended its educational outreach to an audience whose daily workplace practices can benefit from greater awareness of energy conservation.
The activity also reinforced the importance of responsible electricity use in public institutions and encouraged participants to consider practical ways to conserve energy in their respective work environments.
Bringing solar energy education to students and local communities
On Oct. 9, 2025, MSEUF expanded its clean energy outreach through a seminar at Laguna State Polytechnic University (LSPU), Sta. Cruz Campus, where Engr. Inojosa served as a resource speaker on solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, energy efficiency, and clean energy utilization.
The seminar brought together students, faculty members, and invited local community leaders for discussions on renewable energy technologies and responsible energy consumption.
Engr. Inojosa introduced the basic principles of solar PV systems, explained their potential applications, and discussed how renewable energy technologies can support more sustainable electricity consumption.

The engagement also covered practical approaches to energy conservation in relation to Republic Act No. 11285, or the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Act.
By sharing technical knowledge with academic and community audiences, MSEUF helped make discussions on renewable energy more accessible and encouraged participants to recognize the importance of energy efficiency in schools, workplaces, households, and communities.
The seminar demonstrated how university expertise can contribute to public understanding of clean energy technologies and support broader community participation in energy conservation.
Strengthening institutional capacity for sustained energy education
Alongside its external outreach, MSEUF conducted energy education activities for its personnel to strengthen institutional awareness and promote responsible energy practices.
On Aug. 14, 2025, the GSD, with support from the Office of the Vice President for Administration and in collaboration with the Human Resource Department, organized the online "Awareness Seminar on Energy Management, Conservation, and RA 11285 Compliance."
The seminar featured Engr. Jeddper De Castro, who discussed energy management fundamentals, practical conservation strategies, Republic Act No. 11285, and the ISO 50001 energy management framework.
On Oct. 23, 2025, MSEUF also partnered with Meralco Business Centers in San Pablo and Lucena for the webinar "Best Practices for Electrical Safety and Energy Conservation for Schools."
The webinar addressed electrical safety, energy conservation strategies, and the use of smart energy management systems to support more efficient institutional operations.

These internal educational activities complemented the University's community outreach by strengthening awareness of energy efficiency among its personnel.
Extending university expertise toward sustainable communities
MSEUF's 2025 energy education initiatives demonstrated its contribution to community learning through the sharing of professional expertise on energy conservation and renewable energy technologies.
Through engagements with law enforcement personnel, academic institutions, and local community representatives, the University expanded access to practical information on energy efficiency and clean energy beyond its own campus.
The initiatives reflected the University's commitment to Service, Excellence, and Mindfulness by promoting responsible resource use, sharing technical knowledge, and supporting environmental awareness.
