An Academic City University College student project has received recognition at this year’s Engineering Excellence Awards.

The project, dubbed as the ‘NELDI’ was honoured in the category of Innovation: Applied Science and Mathematics, highlighting the project's outstanding uniqueness and practicality in its goal to change energy usage and appliance control.

The 'NELDI' project presents an innovative solution to efficiently conserve electrical energy and simplify the management of electrical appliances.

This system allows users to easily control a wide range of devices, including lights, fans, and sockets, right from their smartphones, no matter where they are.

This advancement not only improves convenience but also plays a crucial role in promoting energy efficiency, which is a major concern in both residential and commercial settings.

The students behind this innovative project include Joseph Apiriala-Atedoghu, Level 300 Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Delasi Richards, Level 200 Computer Engineering, Emmanuella Uwudia, Level 200 Computer Science, Latif Dabone, Level 200 Computer Science and Nii Sodja, Level 200 Information Technology.

The Engineering Excellence Awards is an initiative of the Ghana Institution of Engineering to honour exceptional achievements in engineering excellence and innovation.

It honours individuals, organisations, and students who have demonstrated potential for research and development in engineering.

The acknowledgement of the 'NELDI' project emphasises its importance and ability to bring about positive change in the engineering field.
