Description

The Symbiosis International University in Pune oversees a campus with eight faculties and over 20,000 students. The University is already pursuing sustainability goals in the areas of food services, solar energy, and mobility, with plans to expand the existing facilities. An overall energy concept for the university’s sites remains open.
Based on the successful Swiss approach for the 2000W sites, the criteria catalogue for the 2000W sites’ certification will be adapted to the Indian context as a first step. In a second step, the entire process will be implemented for the Symbiosis University campus; from recording the status quo to analyses, the development of a master plan for energy, building design, construction methods, mobility, food, waste management, etc. The project’s main goal is the first successful certification of an area as a 2000W Smart City in India, followed by the establishment and multiplication of new 2000-Watt Smart Townships in Pune and throughout India.
