LEAP Cities

The School of Specialized Excellence (SoSE) at Mehram Nagar in South Delhi is getting a state-of-the-art facility with a semi-Olympic size swimming pool attributable to Oorja Energy Engineering Services's structure cooling technology. It has reduced the energy consumption for cooling by >90% as no air conditioning or compressor-based cooling is used.

55 classrooms and 8 labs spread across 4 levels will be serviced by Structure cooling technology. The building will also be equipped with additional alluring features including rainwater collection, rooftop solar panels, and the usage of sustainable building materials. With proactive support from Delhi's Deputy CM Manish Sisodia, Oorja Energy Engineering Services will replicate this design in other upcoming projects.

Get in touch with Madhusudhan Rapole (Founder of Oorja Engineering Pvt Ltd) for more innovative HVAC solutions for your upcoming building.

System Thinking : Understand the Bigger and Longer-Term Picture
by Manas Rath (Founder LEAP Cities)

The actual behaviour of complex systems like society, the environment and cities, is generated through multiple feedback loops, delays and non-linearities--but most of our analysis tends to be linear and bounded, resulting in vastly different outcomes than what we expect from our actions. Systems Thinking helps us understand these dynamics and therefore plan and make strategic and tactical decisions more effectively.

Date: 7th October (Friday);
Time: 4:30-6:00 PM
