Danfoss reaffirms its commitment to make Indian industries energy efficient

Danfoss Industries Pvt. Ltd. an industry leader in energy efficient solutions for refrigeration, HVAC, heavy industries and district energy, presented its latest energy efficient Drives technology at the Energy Efficiency Summit in Hyderabad. The drives solutions are in line with the government’s vision to incorporate sustainable development for nation building.

Over the last 5 decades, the company has set a global benchmark of engineering solutions critical in reducing environmental and economic cost of progress with its energy efficient technologies. Danfoss Drives have proven to be front-runners in its commitment to minimize carbon emissions with utility across industries from food processing to infrastructure building, chemical industry to water & waste water management. They have also enabled companies to challenge the manufacturing environment to derive maximum potential from the engineering systems.

Speaking at the summit, Mr. Ravichandran Purushothaman, President, Danfoss India addressed the importance of Decarbonization across industries and said, “In this era of Industry 4.0, technology and the manufacturing processes are constantly evolving. With industry being responsible for over 38% of global total energy use, it is time for companies to emulate a way to address efficient energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions.

Understanding this, the first pillar towards decarbonisation is to employ energy efficient technology and promote replenishable energy sources; secondly, it is important to integrate digitalisation and electrification as means to promote efficiency across business divisions, increase flexibility and enable integration across function systems. Finally, it is important for the government and the industry to come together to promote a culture of innovation in the energy space, thereby allowing scope for new frontiers of sustainable development”.

At the summit, Danfoss addressed the need for companies to understand the complexities of safety issues involved in the industrial manufacturing space by drawing parallels to Danfoss’ real-life expertise across its varied customer base. It included examples that has helped large Indian companies in improving its productivity and reducing energy consumption. The Danfoss Drives Solutions on display were Drive Sync, Antisway kit, IP 66 Water proof and IP 55 dust proof kit.
