Mindoro State University (MinSU) has officially partnered with the Department of Science and Technology – MIMAROPA (DOST-MIMAROPA) for the implementation of Project HyDroGreen: Harnessing Yield-Driven Rainwater Optimization for a Green Resilient, Efficient, and Eco-Friendly Network. The ceremonial signing of the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was held on April 28, 2025.
The agreement, facilitated by the Provincial Science and Technology Office – Oriental Mindoro (PSTO-OrMin), marks the start of a major sustainability initiative aimed at enhancing the university’s water and energy efficiency. The project is funded under DOST’s Grants-In-Aid (GIA) Program.
Project HyDroGreen involves the development and installation of an Arduino-based system designed to collect and filter rainwater for non-potable use, while also generating renewable electricity. It is expected to reduce MinSU’s environmental footprint and improve resource management across the campus.
University officials welcomed the partnership, calling it a big step forward in making MinSU a greener and more resilient institution.
The DOST-GIA Program supports science and technology projects that promote sustainable development, innovation, and community benefit. Through this collaboration, MinSU continues to lead in promoting environmental solutions in higher education.
