Figure 46: Refrigerant demand comparison between BAU & STS:26C
4. Cooling capacity addition: It is estimated that implementing the ICAP STS:26C scenario there would be around 352 Million TR of refrigerant based cooling capacity addition is required in India by 203738 compared to 70 Million TR in 2017 which may further go up to 540 Million TR by 2047. It is also estimated that there would be a capacity addition requirement of approximately 2300 million units of fans and 250 million units of evaporative coolers in the country to meet the cooling demand by 2037. Figure 47 shows the total cooling capacity addition requirement under the Sustainable Cooling scenario of ICAP implementation
