NeXHS entered into a 𝐉𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐏𝐡𝐃 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 with BSA Crescent Institute of Science and Technology, strengthening industry–academia partnership in the areas of renewable energy and sustainability.
MoU Signed on: 18 December 2025
Collaboration Type: Industry–Academia Joint PhD Programme
This collaboration was formalised alongside the inauguration of the Renewable Energy (RE) Laboratory at BSA Crescent Institute of Science and Technology, where NeXHS was invited to participate as an industry partner.
Collaboration Focus:
- Joint doctoral research in renewable energy and sustainability
- Industry-guided research problem definition and execution
- Knowledge exchange between academic research and real-world applications
Objective
This partnership aims to bridge academic excellence with industry expertise to:
- Support research-driven innovation
- Nurture future talent in renewable energy
- Deliver practical, scalable, and impact-oriented solutions
The initiative reflects NeXHS’s continued commitment to knowledge sharing, innovation, and long-term sustainability impact, while fostering meaningful collaboration between academia and industry.
- Collaboration with IIT Bhubaneswar
NeXHS collaborated with IIT Bhubaneswar to establish a cutting-edge 𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐄𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧.
Lab Name: Centre for Coastal and River Bank Erosion
Funded by: DST-FIST, Gol & Nexhs Renewables PVT LTD
Key Infrastructure:
- Hybrid wind-wave recirculating hydraulic flume
- Ultrasonic Velocity Profiler
Focus Area:
The lab is currently engaged in high-impact research studying scour around inclined pile-supported breakwaters and wharf structures, particularly under the influence of combined wave and current actions.
Research Highlights
- Investigating the effects of pile inclination, spacing, diameter, sediment size, and flow velocity.
- Measuring maximum equilibrium scour depth and time variation of scour.
- Developing predictive design guidelines for coastal infrastructure engineering.
This initiative is a step towards building resilient offshore Renewable infrastructure and also addressing the climate-induced challenges of erosion and sediment transport.
