Danfoss Industries Pvt. Ltd., in association with Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL), has partnered with the United Nations for introducing the District Energy in Cities initiative in India. As part of the United Nations’ Sustainable Energy for All Initiative, six cities in India – Thane, Pune, Bhubaneswar, Rajkot, Coimbatore and Bhopal – have been chosen to explore district energy systems. Thane – also part of the Central Government’s Smart Cities Mission – will be the first city to be assessed for its potential for implementation of the district energy system. Danfoss announced on November 2 that it has been appointed a member of the Global Panel for the Cooling for All initiative to
drive increasing access to affordable and sustainable cooling solutions throughout the world. With this partnership in India, Danfoss India will be a technology partner in the initiative where the company’s district heating and cooling innovations will help deliver improved and low-cost heating or cooling solutions.
