Taj Mahal, New Delhi strengthens its commitment to sustainable hospitality practices with Innergise Green Meetings

New Delhi, 5th June, 2024: Ahead of World Environment Day, Taj Mahal, New Delhi introduces Innergise Green Meetings, a pioneering initiative aimed at establishing new benchmarks for sustainable business conferences and events. Designed to inspire creativity and foster collaboration, the initiative features mindfully curated menus, responsibly sourced consumables, sustainable meeting services, and energising participative activities, all while ensuring a positive impact on both the planet and the participants.

The announcement perfectly aligns with the upcoming World Environment Day, themed ‘Land Restoration, Desertification, and Drought Resilience,’ emphasising the hotel’s dedication to environmental consciousness.

Innergise Green Meetings offers a refreshing and innovative approach to corporate gatherings. From using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients with low sugar and fat content, to implementing energy-efficient practices such as EV transport, LED lighting, and smart thermostats, and utilising recycled paper, the initiative ensures every aspect of the meeting is environmentally conscious.

Additionally, it offers enriching activities like Yoga, sound healing, and meditation sessions under expert guidance, enhancing the overall experience. This initiative is part of the Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL)’s commitment to Ahvaan 2025 under the Paathya framework, reinforcing its leadership in eco-friendly hospitality.

Mr. Satyajeet Krishnan, Area Director – Operations and General Manager at Taj Mahal, New Delhi, said, “At Taj Mahal, New Delhi, sustainability has always been a priority, and the introduction of Innergise Green Meetings marks another milestone in our journey towards sustainability. We are excited to offer a unique, eco-friendly meeting experience that harmonises with our commitment to exceptional hospitality while creating a lasting positive impact on our environment.”

Chef Arun Sundararaj, Director of Culinary Operations – Taj Mahal, New Delhi, said, ” At Taj Mahal, New Delhi, we believe in crafting experiences that transcend the ordinary, and our latest initiative, Innergise Green Meetings, embodies this ethos. Led by culinary excellence and a commitment to environmental responsibility, Innergise Green Meetings are set to revolutionise corporate gatherings. Our menus for Innergise Green Meetings are crafted with great care, using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients that are both nutritious and delicious.”

Over the years, Taj Mahal, New Delhi has implemented several measures to minimise its ecological footprint including the introduction of a bottling plant, and the utilisation of IOT Automation technology through IOT Ecotech which helps in optimising efficiency.

Moreover, the hotel’s dedication to environmental stewardship is evident in its innovative solutions like chemical-free cooling tower treatment, which reduces water consumption by up to 15% and eliminates the use of harmful chemicals. Furthermore, the adoption of heat pumps for hot water generation has led to a considerable decrease in PNG consumption, contributing to reduced CO2 emissions. The installation of EV chargers further promotes sustainability by encouraging the use of electric vehicles.

Driven by Data: Fueling EVs

Imagine a world where the hum of engines and the smell of exhaust are things of the past. That’s the future electric vehicles (EVs) promise us. As it stands, our roads contribute about 12% of global carbon emissions, but the rise of EVs is key to turning this around and making transportation cleaner and greener.

But, to accelerate EV adoption, the sector needs to leverage a new type of fuel altogether: data.

EVs are game changers for infrastructure around the globe. With their growing numbers, they’re reshaping everything from city layouts to how we manage our electricity supply. The shift to EVs brings new challenges for our power grids and the need for innovative infrastructure to keep them running.

Here’s how data can help meet those challenges:

THE GRID

The central challenge that data can solve boils down like this: Lots of people tend to charge their EVs at the same time, placing sizable strain on electricity grids. But there are also periods when few people are charging their cars, meaning there is excess capacity in the grid. Is there a way to shift EV owners’ behaviors so they charge during times of lower demand?

“Intelligent EV charging is becoming a big area,” said IEEE Senior Member Kyri Baker. “Charging EVs at high power rates can strain infrastructure like transformers, so smart scheduling of charging can help extend the lifespan of these components.”

By looking at how customers have used power in the past, it’s possible to make the distribution of electricity – especially for charging things – more efficient. By figuring out the busiest times and places for electricity use, the people running the power grid can spread out the power usage better. This way, they can avoid overloading the system, save on energy costs, and make the whole network run smoother.

WHERE CAN YOU CHARGE?
Knowing how much battery power an EV has left is super useful, not just to individual drivers, but to all their fellow drivers on the road. That information, sometimes referred to as the vehicle’s state of charge, can tell an individual motorist how far they can go before they need to refuel. By collecting and analyzing state-of-charge data for many vehicles, a driver can know the best charging station to use to avoid a wait. And builders would also be able to use the data to understand the best place to build new charging stations.

“By analyzing the historical data of electric vehicle charging station use, like time of day, day of the week, seasonal variations, etc., it is possible to understand where the demand is high,” said IEEE Senior Member Marcio Andrey Teixeira. “The behavior of the data is another important factor because it provides insights like preferred charging times and popular routes. This information helps in the optimization of the placement of charging stations along frequently traveled routes.”

This means that the distribution grid and its stakeholders need to ensure that EVs and the grid work together. The Nov.-Dec. 2023 issue devotes numerous articles to the challenges of integrating EVs.
