Tata Energy And Resources Institute, Bangalore

The Tata Energy and Resources Institute has a spot here in Bangalore at House Number 138. We are located on the 2nd Cross in the OMBR Layout, which is part of Banasvadi. It is a residential area, so it's a lot quieter than the city center. The building looks like a regular house from the outside, but inside we are busy with research and data. We aren't a big industrial factory or anything like that. It is just a group of us working on energy and environment stuff. The desks are piled high with reports and there are always whiteboards filled with notes that nobody wants to erase. We have a small kitchen where we make tea and talk about our projects. It's a pretty relaxed atmosphere, even though the work we do is quite serious. We don't have fancy office furniture or big logos on the walls. We just have our computers and our books. Sometimes we go out into the layout to get a snack or just walk around. It is a good place to work because it doesn't feel like a typical corporate office. We just do our research, write our papers, and try to understand how things work. It's just a regular day for us here in Banasvadi, and we keep things simple and focused.
