Enrica De Cian, principal investigator of the ERC EnergyA project, decided to add a visual component to the coverage of her peer-reviewed articles. The project focuses on the adaptation to climate change thanks to the use of energy: for instance Air Conditioning, Refrigeration, and Desalinization.
For this first visual story, we agreed to focus on Air Conditioning in India. Our New York-based photographer and cinematographer Gaia Squarci shot a set of photos (and a couple of interviews) in Delhi and Mumbai in November 2019 under our guidance, providing an ample portfolio to be used to accompany Enrica’s scientific research work in a number of different venues.
