Ongoing Projects
Assessing the co-benefits of a low carbon development pathway for India
December 27, 2017
| Air
The objective of the project is to estimate co-benefits of the GHG mitigation strategies on air quality, human health and agricultural productivity. This calls for the following: a) Preparation of high-resolution emission inventory based on energy modelling results of the MARKAL/TIMES model for the policy scenarios developed under the on-going WRI/TERI study. b) Carrying out meteorological and air quality simulations to predict Particulate Matter (PM) and Ozone concentrations across the study domain for current and future time scales
Afforestation/Reforestation Clean Development Mechanism study under Uttar Pradesh Participatory Forest Management and Poverty Alleviation Project
December 27, 2017
| Forest & Biodiversity
Under this study, TERI is preparing Afforestation/Reforestation Clean Development Mechanism (A/R CDM) projects in the areas under UP Participatory Forest Management and Poverty Alleviation Project (UPPFMPAP - http://www.uppfmpap.org/), which is under implementation in the 20 forest divisions spread over 14 districts of the state of Uttar Pradesh.
Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions for building sector
December 27, 2017
| Buildings
| Sustainable Habitat
TERI is developing Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) in the buildings sector for Indonesia, Thailand, The Philippines and Vietnam. The project will assist the countries in recognizing the significant mitigation potential of the building section, identify and recommend actions for development in the NAMAs, provide MRV (measurement, reporting and verification) tools and an overall framework to support NAMA development by the countries.
Designing climate products and models for India
December 27, 2017
| Climate Change
The proposed work plans to continue with TERI's ongoing research with the objective of improving understanding of climate processes and its linkages at regional scales especially under the growing extreme climate event narrative using state-of-art dynamical modelling products.

Developing a recycling plan for old solar PVs
December 27, 2017
| Energy
The project is to study challenges in the inter-connection of solar PV based microgrid with distribution grids and develop standardized architecture/road map to accelerate the solar PV based microgrid development in India and Develop a recycling plan for solar PV module and new battery technology used in microgrids applications.
MEOR: Recovering Oil from Stripper Wells
December 27, 2017
Ageing oil wells are a growing challenge for the global oil industry. As reservoirs deplete, declining pressure reduces oil flow, leaving many wells classified as stripper wells, low-producing assets nearing the end of their economic life. Despite this, substantial residual oil remains trapped in these reservoirs. Conventional recovery methods are costly (USD 140,000–200,000 per well) and increasingly ineffective at higher depths and temperatures.
Process Monitoring under Rejuvenating Watersheds for Agricultural Resilience through Innovative Development (REWARD) Project
December 27, 2017
| Land
The REWARD project by the Watershed Development Department of Karnataka, supported by the World Bank, promotes climate-smart agriculture through scientific watershed development. Launched in 2021–22 and running until 2026–27, it covers 20 lakh hectares across 21 districts, with focused interventions on 1 lakh hectares. The project integrates production, processing, post-harvest management, and marketing while supporting landless individuals and women.
