Indo-Danish Projects

IIT Madras is collaborating with Denmark on Next Generation Fuels and Energy Systems under Indo-Danish Green Strategic Partnership. A total of four projects were announced today (1st March 2023) at an event at IIT Madras Research Park (IITMRP) in the presence of HRH the Crown Prince of Denmark, Mr. Lars Aagaard, Minister for Climate, Energy and Utilities, Government of Denmark, and Mr. Freddy Svane, Ambassador of Denmark to India, among other stakeholders. Three projects are in the realm of Energy and focus on IIT Madras Energy Consortium’s vision of enabling energy transition towards a low-carbon future. They will specifically help in
1) Accelerating technology development through industry-academia-government partnerships, and
2) Collaborations with global partners to develop technology solutions that once deployed at scale in India will essentially become technology solutions for the world.
