Recently Union Minister for Environment, Forest and Climate Change released the India Cooling Action Plan (ICAP).

About the plan:

  • India is one of the first countries in the world to develop a comprehensive Cooling Action plan.
  • The overarching goal of ICAP is to provide sustainable cooling and thermal comfort for all while securing environmental and socio-economic benefits for the society.
  • It provides an integrated vision towards cooling across sectors encompassing inter alia reduction of cooling demand, refrigerant transition, enhancing energy efficiency and better technology options with a 20 year time horizon.
  • The ICAP seeks to
    1. Reduce cooling demand across sectors by 20% to 25% by 2037-38
    2. Reduce refrigerant demand by 25% to 30% by 2037-38
    3. Reduce cooling energy requirements by 25% to 40% by 2037-38
    4. Recognize “cooling and related areas” as a thrust area of research under national S&T Programme
    5. Training and certification of 100,000 servicing sector technicians by 2022-23, synergizing with Skill India Mission.

Benefits:

    1. Thermal comfort for all – provision for cooling for EWS and LIG housing
    2. Sustainable cooling – low GHG emissions related to cooling
    3. Doubling Farmers Income – better cold chain infrastructure – better value of produce to farmers, less wastage of produce
