The Gujarat Energy Development Agency is a state nodal agency established by the Government of Gujarat in 1979 to promote and popularize renewable energy technologies and energy conservation measures. The agency’s mandate is focused on:

THE DESIGN BRIEF

it should be a symbol, with the acronym of _Fostering development of sustainable, equitable and

the organisation, in English.

resilient energy systems. The key adjectives which the symbol should _Initiation of change from energy deprivation and

represent are,

dependence to energy autonomy through use of renewable technologies and conservation measures.

Energy non-renewable/natural resources (sun, wind, biomass)

_Create energy literate citizenry, capable of making wise energy choices.

Spreading Awareness on the issue

_Research, development, demonstration and popularization

Gujarati-ness

of renewable energy and energy efficient technologies. The organisation is engaged in the following activities,

Easy to remember & Simple to replicate

Education through workshops, energy audits etc. Awareness through public media, school network and other means Promotion & Facilitation through model units and demo centres Production of power

CONCEPT 1 • THE CONTINUUM

The continuum is based on the fact that energy is never destroyed. It just changes the forms – from potential energy to kinetic energy and so on... This is represented by a spiral transforming into a sun, which is contained inside the ‘waves’ of wind. The leaves encircling the form indicate awareness. The colours are inspired by the Indian tricolour and lends vibrancy. Overall the form is very dynamic, engaging and easy to reproduce in single colour across various applications.

CONCEPT 2 • THE SYNERGY

The synergy is inspired by, “the whole is greater than the sum of parts” The solid circular form in the centre, surrounded by the dynamic leaves and dots, lend a strong radiance to the form. Set in a strong, maroon colour, it evokes confidence and maturity. A very bold and distinct symbol, it represents the various alternatives of energy – generation, consumption and conservation. An eye-catchy visual, it is easy to represent across various applications and media.

CONCEPT 3 • THE BUILDING BLOCKS

The building blocks is based on a very simple and straightforward idea. Energy has many manifestations, but GEDA is focussing on solar energy, biomass and wind energy. This core focus is represented visually in the form of simple icons, which combined with typography create a very smart and stable configuration. The colours are direct and easy to recall. The brown colour denotes earth & sustainability. Easy to represent in one colour without losing the essence of the idea.

CONCEPT 4 • THE QUADRANTS

The quadrants, a variation of the building blocks, is anchored on the idea of energy all around us. The plus sign indicates, working together and working in all directions. It also denotes a positive attitude towards energy sources and conservation. The modularity and iconic representation of this configuration allows a flexible identity for various programs of GEDA. The symbol is easy to reproduce in single colour.

CONCEPT 5 • THE URJA-CHAKRA

The urja chakra, as the name denotes is the ring of energy – solid, bold and emphatic, spreading the energy (and awareness) in all directions. Set in a solid warm maroon, it evokes stability and leadership. The two white rings at the centre denote autonomy of energy. The form of the sun, of course represents the supreme source of renewable energy. It is easy to remember, describe and reproduce across various applications.

CONCEPT 6 • KINETICS OF CHANGE

Inspired from the pithora paintings of Gujarat, the kinetics of change represents the windmills and power generation (electricity). The circular form represents the sun with rays of awareness, emanating in all directions. Overall a very dynamic form, it denotes the movement of renewable energy and conservation of energy. Even in one colour representation, the form is very strong and has movement. Easy to draw and replicate across various media.

CONCEPT 7 • INPUT – OUTPUT

Inspired from the embroidery techniques typical of Gujarat, this option portrays the collaboration of producer and consumer of renewable energy. The smaller components join together moving towards the central core of energy creating a negative space which represents the output of energy. The overall circular form is also reminiscent of the sun, and is easy to identify and reproduce across various media.

CONCEPT 8 • RADIANCE

This approach is inspired from the mirror-work embroidery technique which is very peculiar and found commonly in Gujarat. This option portrays the core of energy and rays of awareness and action radiating from the core. The advantage of this symbol is that the people are more familiar with it in day to day lives and therefore has high recall value. The overall circular form is also reminiscent of the sun, and is easy to identify and reproduce across various media.
