At Georgia Tech, the future of energy is being shaped by a passionate community of students committed to sustainability and clean energy innovation. Clubs including  ElectrifyGT, GT Energy Club, and Re-Volv serve as hubs for collaboration, education, and cutting-edge projects that push the boundaries of what’s possible in renewable energy and sustainable technology.  

We checked in with several clubs about their priorities and what makes their communities special. 

*Note: There are many student organizations doing great work at Georgia Tech. We couldn’t highlight them all in this article, but we try to feature them on our Student Sustainability Organizations page. Don’t see your org listed? Let us know by emailing sustain@gatech.edu.

ElectrifyGT

Who They Are: ElectrifyGT is a student-led organization at Georgia Tech dedicated to promoting the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and advancing electrification technologies. 

What They Do: The group hosts events, workshops, and discussions to educate students about the benefits of EVs, sustainable transportation, and the broader impact of electrification on reducing carbon emissions. ElectrifyGT also collaborates with industry experts and faculty to explore innovations in electric mobility and clean energy, creating opportunities for students to engage with research and real-world applications in the field.

Current Initiatives: Sasipa Viravan, president of ElectrifyGT, reflected on several of the projects she is spearheading this semester, noting initiatives to create “campus electric vehicle charging” and “explore solar panel incorporation at Georgia Tech.”

“Being part of one of the largest interdisciplinary clubs on campus, which a lot of people don’t always associate with energy, is something that’s always been really important to me,” said Braden Nathaniel, VP of Communications for the GT Energy Club. “When you’re working in different fields and careers, you’re going to be crossing paths with other engineers, other majors, other fields. I think that’s something our club does a great job with, being involved with policy, economics, the engineering, everything and just combining those all.”

Getting involved in energy and sustainability clubs at Georgia Tech is a great way for students to explore their passion for environmental impact and clean energy solutions. Organizations such as the Energy Club, ElectrifyGT, Re-Volv, and Solar at GT offer hands-on projects, networking opportunities, and industry connections that empower students to make a difference on campus and beyond. Whether you’re interested in renewable energy, electric vehicles, or sustainability in business, these clubs provide a platform to learn, collaborate, and drive meaningful change.
