Projects
Study on the benefits of Somfy Roller Blinds in the Indian Context
January 1, 2016 to September 30, 2016
| Completed Project
The main objectives of the proposed study are as follows: Case studies: To find out and define the practical problems occurring with the conventional methods of window shading and glazing selection. Numerical and test bed experiments: To find out better and effective solutions for appropriate shade and glazing design suitable for the Indian context.
Development of Fungal Biopesticides from endophytes isolated from medicinal plants
December 17, 2015 to December 17, 2018
| Completed Project
The area under organic cultivation in India is estimated to be around 100,000 hectares. Besides, there are lakhs of hectares of forest area being certified as organic. Already some states like Uttarakhand and Sikkim have declared them as organic states.
Molecular Mapping of Pepper Leaf Curl Virus Resistance Gene in Capsicum Species
November 16, 2015 to November 16, 2018
| Completed Project
| Sustainable Agriculture
The project aims to characterising leaf curl disease resistance in wild capsicum species and developing breeding lines and PCR based markers. These tools would be helpful in developing leaf curl resistance chilli hybrids by seed companies.
Integrated planning for reducing GHG emissions and air pollutants will yield greater benefits: TERI study

| Climate Change
An assessment of co-benefits of low carbon pathway on air quality, human health and agricultural productivity in India
Conducting baseline survey to evolve methodology for fixation of Minimum Support Price for selected Minor Forest Produce
October 6, 2015 to June 30, 2016
| Completed Project
| Forest & Biodiversity
The forest dwelling communities in India have been legally endowed with ownership and governance of minor forest produce (MFP) through two seminal legislations of Government of India, namely PESA, 1996 and Forest Rights Act, 2006, which gives the “right of ownership, access to collect, use and dispose of minor forest produce which has been traditionally collected within or outside village bound
Climate Adaptation & Services Community (CASCO)
October 1, 2015 to November 30, 2019
| Completed Project
| Climate Change | Environment
CASCO will especially focus on long-lasting cooperation in the field of climate change adaptation by creating a community of European and Indian researchers and innovators. CASCO consists of a total of 5 European and 4 Indian core partners, with a wide range of network partners. The consortium is strongly rooted in earlier cooperation on climate change and water issues in India.

| Completed Project
| Environment | Waste
The report reflects the status of PCC management in 13 cities in India and three cities in Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka.
A high-rate bioelectrochemical anaerobic digestion process specialized in distillery wastewater for organic pollutants stabilization and methane gas recovery
July 17, 2015 to July 16, 2018
| Completed Project
| Environment
This is a bilateral collaborative project sanctioned under the DST Indo-Korea programme. The main goal of this study is to develop novel high-rate bioelectrochemical anaerobic digestion process for renewable energy recovery from distillery wastewater, leading to the initial phase of pilot scale development of bioelectrochemical anaerobic digestion (BEAD) process.
