Focus Areas
Energy Storage
To make renewable energy available round the clock, energy storage systems play a key role in balancing demand & supply of energy. We are developing energy storage systems like Thermal (Chilled Water) storage, Li-Ion & Zinc-Air batteries, catering to storage requirements across a wide set of applications.
Energy Generation
The future of energy is clean, green and sustainable . We are undertaking research and development across multiple energy generation sources to accelerate the shift towards 100% renewable energy usage.
Energy Efficiency
Enhancing energy efficiency, especially in HVAC will be a critical component in the shift towards Net-Zero emissions. Our major focus is to optimize energy generation, storage & consumption, ensuring fully integrated systems that can be monitored and managed through a comprehensive Energy Management System (EMS).
