The Energy Consortium at IIT Madras connects industry, academia and government. Its website needs to explain what the consortium offers each audience, the work already underway and the opportunities for collaboration. The latest redesign brought that information into dedicated sections, alongside a refreshed interface and a new way to explore international partnerships.
Kulkarni Technologies developed and delivered the website, implementing the structure proposed by EC and its collaborating consultant. Launched in September 2026, the site is now supported through WebCare for maintenance, updates and ongoing content changes.
EC's activities span research, industry engagement, government collaboration and international partnerships. The earlier website had already improved on its predecessor, but information remained distributed across project updates and announcements. Visitors could read about individual activities without finding a consolidated picture of what EC offered their sector.
For an industry visitor, the requirement was particularly clear: bring together what EC offers industry and what is already in progress, rather than leave those details spread across separate updates.
EC and its collaborating consultant proposed a structure centred on its principal audiences. Kulkarni Technologies built and delivered that structure in WordPress, alongside the interface revamp.
The Areas of Work navigation now provides dedicated routes for Industry, Academia and Government. The Industry section brings the consortium's offering and ongoing work together. A separate Global Partnerships area gives international collaborations a distinct place within the site.
Translate the structure proposed by EC and its consultant into website navigation and dedicated sections for the consortium's audiences.
Build the UI revamp using WordPress, Elementor Pro and Astra Pro, with Slider Revolution included in the website stack.
Provide a dedicated section and a map that takes visitors from a country marker to the relevant country page.
Deliver the redesigned website and continue supporting maintenance, updates and content changes through WebCare.
The delivered website presents EC's activities through audience-specific sections as well as project and news content. Industry visitors have a dedicated destination for understanding the consortium's offering and ongoing work. Academia and Government have their own routes, while international collaborations are grouped under Global Partnerships.
The collaboration map adds a visual route to country pages, connecting the overview of EC's international presence with more specific information. Together with the UI revamp, these changes provide a more coherent way to present the consortium's work and relationships.
The engagement continues beyond launch. Kulkarni Technologies supports EC with website maintenance, updates, content updates and changes, helping keep the site current as its activities develop.
