Danfoss Hall of Fame to recognise energy efficient commercial buildings

Danfoss India, a Danish company that engineers technologies for a better tomorrow, held a Hall of Fame roadshow in Kolkata to encourage energy efficient commercial buildings in the city. The roadshow is aimed at increasing participation for Hall of Fame 2017 which is a joint initiative with Indian Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ISHRAE) to recognize excellence achieved in conserving energy by commercial buildings in the country.

Hall of Fame roadshow is aimed at sensitising and educating architects, consultants, and engineers on the need for these energy efficient interventions in commercial buildings. This recognition aims to encourage energy efficiency among stakeholders and to showcase success stories in the HVAC space which have the potential to be replicated across India.

Based on selection criteria that include Energy Performance Index, Indoor Environment Quality initiatives, Energy Saving Initiatives including Renewable Energy, Building Management System and one-year operational data, the inductee/s will be announced in February 2017 at ACREX, New Delhi.

"We believe by using relevant technologies, cities can reduce energy consumption and accelerate low-carbon development. The aim of this roadshow is to spread awareness about adoption of these technologies and enable stakeholders to understand the full potential of energy efficiency," said Mr. Ravichandran Purushothaman, President, Danfoss India.
