The focus of this initiative is to provide technical consulting and advisory support to governments and international institutions in designing and developing energy-efficient agricultural infrastructure. It promotes the use of certified equipment, integration of green energy systems, adoption of non-refrigerant cooling solutions, and the use of natural refrigerants.
The project aimed to enhance the energy efficiency of pack houses in India, which play a crucial role in the country's cold chain infrastructure. The focus was on developing sustainable options to accommodate the anticipated capacity expansion in pack houses over the next two decades, addressing the corresponding increase in energy demand.
