EESL Inks MoUs with 5 Organisations to Implement Energy Efficient Solns

Both EESL and USAID partnered to develop strategies for the roll-out of scalable, market-led solutions for sustainable cooling technologies and superefficient buildings under the MAITREE programme.

Energy Efficiency Services Ltd (EESL), a joint venture of PSUs under the Union Ministry of Power, signed agreements with five Indian organisations with an aim to demonstrate a cross-cutting technology in agricultural water pumping application in India.

The Memorandum of Understandings (MoUs) inked under the India-Israel Industrial R&D & Technological Innovation Fund (i4f), and the partnering organisations include – Global Innovation & Technology Alliance (GITA), Datamatrix Infotech Pvt Ltd, BAIF Research Foundation and IIT Bhubaneshwar.
