The Green School - Advancing a Step Towards Sustainable Behaviour
November 23, 2023
| Ongoing project
| Energy Efficiency | Water | Waste | Sustainable Habitat | Environment | Energy | Climate Change
The Green School Initiative launched in April 2017 by Tata Steel Foundation and TERI aims to promote behaviour change for environmental conservation and develop resilience among vulnerable communities through driving school ecosystems by exploring curriculum linkages, operationalizing action projects and capacity-building activities on four broad themes: Energy, Water, Forest & Biodiversity
Digital Twin for Enhanced Electric Distribution Grid Operation and Management
November 17, 2023
| Ongoing project
| Energy | Electricity and Renewables
A digital twin is a dynamic, real-time replica of the physical distribution grid. It brings together data from various sources to provide a comprehensive view of power flows, and grid behaviours. This project will be the first demonstration in India, at a useful scale, of applying cloud-based digital twin technology to an electrical distribution grid.
