District Cooling International Conference
31st Oct and 1st November 2023
District Cooling systems (DCS) that can help meet the cooling requirement of multiple buildings reducing the overall space and equipment requirement can pose as an alternative solution to the conventional standalone system currently being used. DCS have entered the Indian market very recently and are proven to reduce GHG emissions as well as contribute towards India’s energy efficiency targets under multiple international protocols and treaties.
Themes
Energise conference is known for bringing together researchers, academicians, practitioners and consultants, and businesses to discuss and debate contemporary and critical research and Energise 2023 will continue that tradition.
India is making a strong and sustained push for sustainable growth and a climate-conscious lifestyle while reducing the emissions intensity by 45% by 2030 from a baseline of 2005 and achieving a net zero by 2070. These goals and values are enshrined in the revised Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), Lifestyle for the Environment (LiFE) movement, and India’s presidency of G20. Energise 2023 takes its cue from India’s national efforts and is organised around lifestyle, energy efficiency, and climate action. By seeking papers under three main categories, Buildings, Cities, and Governance and Markets — we hope to make Energise 2023 one of the most significant and relevant research-focused conferences tackling the topic of energy efficiency, net zero, and resiliency in the built environment.
Conference venue
We strongly recommend that all delegates stay at the venue to maximize the learning & networking opportunities.
