Leaving a ‘green’ impression at Hero MotoCorp

By installing Thermax’s 1400 kW natural gasfired absorption heat pump at their facility in Neemrana, Rajasthan, the two-wheeler automobile major – Hero MotoCorp is saving nearly 40% of natural gas used for heating hot water; thereby reducing their carbon footprint. The heat pump recovers waste heat from the cooling tower which is then used to cool the air compressors at their plant. The hot water generated by the heat pump is used to heat paint at their booth. With the success of this project, the concept is currently being replicated in the company’s other manufacturing facility at Haridwar
