Advantages of Floating Pumphouses: Flexibility: Floating pumphouses can be deployed quickly and easily, making them ideal for areas facing sudden water shortages or emergencies. Minimal Environmental Impact: By harnessing natural water bodies, these pumphouses avoid the need for extensive land use or construction, reducing their ecological footprint. Resilience: Unlike land-based infrastructure susceptible to droughts or floods, floating pumphouses remain operational even during extreme weather events. Energy Efficiency: Incorporating renewable energy sources ensures that floating pumphouses operate efficiently and sustainably, contributing to overall environmental conservation efforts. Case Study: Floating Pumphouse in Action To illustrate the effectiveness of floating pumphouses, let's consider a real-life example. In a region plagued by summer water shortages, authorities installed a floating pumphouse on a reservoir. Despite dwindling water levels, the pumphouse continued to supply clean drinking water to nearby communities, ensuring their well-being even during the hottest months. The project not only alleviated water scarcity but also served as a model for sustainable water management practices. #SustainableSolutions #WaterSecurity #InnovationInProgress

Adopting Energy Conservation Building Code to initiate RETROFITING / RENOVATION of existing building will boost reduction in carbon emission during the additional operational life of such building. Evaluation of opportunities through BUILDING ENERGY PERFORMANCE SIMULATION TOOLS will help to identify optimised cost effective Retrofitting / Reneovation so as to reduce energy cost as well as GHG Emission.
