Aspiration Energy in association with Hosur Industries association conducted a One day workshop in Industrial Heating at  Hosur on May 9, 2018. Professionals from various organisations in industries such as Automotive, Pharma, Hotels, Electronics and more participated in the event, eager to know more about industrial heating.

The objective of the event was as follows:

  • • To understand about energy efficient and sustainable heating methods – through Heat Pumps and Industrial Solar Heaters.
  • • Showcase real-time working, applications and benefits of these systems through site visits.
  • • To understand the key factors (economic, environmental and social) that help in making an ideal energy choice.
  • • To explore the various innovative financing options in the Cleantech Industry.
