Smart and Clean Technologies in High-Rise Residential Apartments

Undertaken By: Meghraj Capital Advisors Private Limited,    Recent Publication: 2017

Shakti commissioned the development of a practical guidebook to help existing high-rise residential buildings implement clean energy projects and smart technologies. The guidebook, targeted at residential communities and resident welfare associations, explores opportunities to reduce the overall electricity consumption of existing high-rise buildings by shifting to cleaner technologies such as cool-roof, roof-top solar, solar water heating and others. The guidebook was launched by the Mayor of the Thane Municipal Corporation and other dignitaries at an event supported by Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) and the Maharashtra Energy Development Agency (MEDA). The MEDA has gone a step forward and promised incentives to the first ten multi-storey residential buildings in Thane to implement the recommendations prescribed in this guidebook.
