Three smart groups decided to work together to help students learn about clean energy.

The groups are a university called JNTUK, a company called Greenko that works on green energy, and another top school called IIT Hyderabad.

They signed a special agreement, called an MoU, to work together.

The agreement will bring a new class called Sustainable Engineering, where students learn how to make and use energy without hurting the planet.

Some students in this class will get money every month to help pay for their studies.

The company Greenko is paying for these scholarships, giving some students ₹10,000 each month for two years.
