I'd earlier commented here in posts dated May 31, June 24 and July 10 about our attempts to have a pilot project at New Town, Rajarhat of developing an energy efficient town....Last Friday, while I was in Delhi, a two member team consisting of Mr V. Bhatt of BNL and Mr. A Joshi of Govt of India made a field visit to New Town and held a meeting with MD, HIDCO and others.Today's Times of India carries a Page 1 story titled 'Rajarhat to be first zero-energy town' talking of the Friday visit as well as the presentation by Katie Bolkar of US Department of Energy at Delhi in May. Here is the link:

Yesterday (16 Aug 2010) we had the 'Stakeholders'Meeting'at Stadel, Salt Lake, organised by WBHIDCO. We ensured that the vision statement for the New Town contained energy efficiency as an ingredient.
ReplyDeleteHello sir, I am Ruchika, a student of final year architecture in NIT, Jaipur. I am supposed to do a research work on energy efficient township as per my academic curriculum. I have gone through your blogs and would like to know if there is any way of procuring the planning details of New Town(Rajarhat), Kolkata. Any data obtained would be of great help to me. Waiting for an early reply.

Dear Ruchika,
ReplyDeleteI'll give you some details next week as I am out of Kolkata for a week from now. But if you need more details, you have to contact WBHIDCO (make a google search).

Mr Bhatt of the Brooklyn National Laboratory came to Kolkata yesterday (26.8.2011) and we had a long discussion at HIDCO. I mentioned that things needed to move faster.
