Bangalore 27th June , 2014 : Mphasis, a leading IT services provider, today announced the successful adoption of an energy saving, carbon reduction solution called the Enthalpy Free Cooling solution developed by ConnectM Technology Solutions.

Many Indian towns and cities, such as Bangalore and Pune, have pleasant and moderate weather conditions which offers a great advantage of using the ambient chillness to cool the work place.Free cooling takes place when the external ambient air enthalpy (the term used for a combination of sensible heat and moisture content) is less than the indoor air enthalpy and the cool external air is transferred to the building envelope.
