All projects

Every project we are running or have completed, from rooftops in Delhi to the campus grid.

Urban microclimate

Cool roof policy

Technical support that helped Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh adopt cool roofs and treat heatwaves as a disaster.

Urban microclimate

Roof of Hope

Reflective roofs for homes in a low-income settlement in Delhi, cutting roof temperatures by up to 20 °C.

Urban microclimateCompleted

Climate zones for Indian districts

A new climate classification for every district in India, built for building energy performance.

Urban microclimate

Wind tunnel for urban planning

An in-house, energy-efficient wind tunnel for studying wind, ventilation and pollution around buildings.

Urban microclimate

Walkability and Project Sidewalk

AI pipelines that find where cities need footpaths, and tools that help build 200+ km of pedestrian-friendly roads in Uttar Pradesh.

Urban microclimate

Geospatial active learning

Machine learning that asks humans to label only the images that matter, making city-scale mapping about 200% more efficient.

Urban microclimate

Automated building plan approval

An AI platform that checks building plans against the rules, for faster approvals and better housing in Ludhiana.

Residential cooling

Thermal Energy Storage Living Lab

India's largest academic research testbed for thermal storage, cooling a 220-room hostel at night with energy stored by day.

Residential coolingCompleted

District cooling for homes

Operational data from 387 homes in Hyderabad shows district cooling can cut installed cooling capacity by up to 90%.

Smart buildings

Smart DC ceiling

Lights and devices that clip into powered ceiling rails, with wireless switches and no conventional wiring.

Smart buildings

Household energy use

Appliance-level monitoring of real homes, and a machine learning simulator that generates realistic electricity data for India.

Smart buildings

Indoor air quality and energy

How pollution changes the way families ventilate and cool their homes, and what that costs in energy and exposure.

Smart buildings

Building energy codes

Shaping India's Energy Conservation and Sustainable Building Code and new metrics for lighting performance.

Smart buildingsPlanned

Smart Home Living Lab

Fully working homes, packed with sensors and automation, to test building products and smart home technology.

Smart microgrids

Campus smart microgrid

A campus-wide living lab that brings solar, storage and controllable loads under intelligent, interoperable control.

Smart microgridsCompleted

Transformer health analytics

A substation dashboard with AI-based predictive analytics for a Delhi distribution utility's transformer fleet.
