State-run Engineers India Limited (EIL) has partnered with the Council Of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) for commercialisation of Earthquake Warning System.
The EIL, a Navratna PSE under Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, has signed an agreement with Chandigarh-based CSIR-Central Scientific Instruments Organisation (CSIO) for joint commercialisation of the system.
CSIR-CSIO has engaged the EIL as the technology commercialisation partner for next five years.
"The MoA cum Transfer of Technology (ToT) Agreement was signed on 30th June 2022 in the presence of Vartika Shukla, C&MD, EIL and Professor S Anantha Ramakrishna, Director, CSIR-CSIO," EIL said in regulatory filing on Friday (1 July).
Under this agreement, CSIR-CSIO and EIL will jointly commercialise the technology of “Earthquake Warning System” (EqWS) developed by CSIR-CSIO.
The EqWS tech is in operation for Delhi Metro Rail Corporation since August 2015.
"This agreement will not only help save lives in future but also help both the organizations to increase the scope of application areas e.g. critical infrastructures/installations where this technology can be put to use," the company said.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
