One step at a time…
Gradually but Steadily implementing the #Varanasi #Heat_Action_Plan to make the #Oldest_Living_City #Heat_Resilient 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Heat Relief for Visitors — Misting Fans Installed at Durga Kund Temple #Varanasi!
As part of the Varanasi Heat Action Plan, Mahila Housing Trust (MHT), with support from the Durga Mata Temple Trust, has implemented a high-pressure misting system at the historic Durga Kund Temple — a revered site frequented by a large number of visitors.
The system uses RO-purified water, dispersed through 60 nozzles, including 20 nozzles attached to 4 strategically placed misting fans across the temple’s four wings, and an additional 40 nozzles installed throughout the premises. This setup has successfully reduced temperatures by up to 5°C, especially within the main prayer hall and temple courtyard, offering much-needed cooling relief from the extreme heat.
Engineered with sustainability in mind, high-TDS water from the RO system is repurposed for temple cleaning, and leftover water is returned to storage tanks for reuse — ensuring minimal water waste.
Both visitors and temple priests have appreciated the innovation, noting how it has made visit more comfortable and safer, especially during peak heat hours.
This initiative is part of the #VaranasiHeatActionPlan, developed collaboratively by the @nagarnigamvns , MHT, @NRDC_India , @IIPHG1 , and the Department of Medical Health and Family Welfare, to protect vulnerable communities from rising temperatures.

MHT and #Jodhpur @NNJNorth is proud to introduce, the first-of-its-kind ‘Net Zero Cooling Station’ for the Informal Sector!
As a crucial part of the #HeatActionPlan, the Cooling Station is a dedicated space aimed at keeping urban poor and marginalized communities cool and safe during soaring temperatures.
Here's a glimpse into what makes the #coolingstation truly unique:
💦 Integrated mist sprinklers and cooling curtains for effective reduction in temperature.
🌞 Solar panels powering lights, fans, and sprinklers, making it eco-friendly and sustainable.
🌬️ Wind tower utilizing natural airflow to expel hot air and usher in cooler air.
💧 Provision of drinking water, ORS and first-aid kit facilities for enhanced comfort during heat waves.
🏠 Transparent façade for safety and visual connection with the surroundings.
🏗️ Innovative Bison and Khas panels to ensure sturdiness and durability.
With these features and more, the ‘Net Zero Cooling Station’ isn't just a shelter—it's a beacon of hope, providing safety and relief to those most vulnerable to extreme heat.
Stay connected for more updates on the #Passivecooling solutions.
