Hyderabad-based Enertech Engineering Private Limited has made significant strides under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative with the development of SnowTent. This innovative tent is designed to provide essential warmth to India’s Armed Forces operating in sub-zero conditions, particularly in high-altitude regions.
SnowTent boasts a robust 3-in-1 kerosene heating system, ensuring a steady supply of heat even in the harshest weather. Additionally, its solar-powered electricity feature provides a sustainable and eco-friendly source of energy for lighting and other essential functions.
Avish Chandha, Director of Enertech Engineering, proudly announced that SnowTent was developed entirely in Hyderabad. The company’s commitment to indigenous innovation is evident in every aspect of this product.
SnowTent’s portability is a key advantage. It can be conveniently packed into three bags, making it easy to transport even by helicopter. This feature is especially valuable for troops deployed in remote and inaccessible areas.
The tent’s fabric is 100% fire-retarded, ensuring the safety of its occupants. The solar power system not only provides electricity but also contributes to the overall sustainability of the tent.
The Border Roads Organization (BRO) has already recognized the value of SnowTent and has procured a significant number of units. These tents are being used to accommodate BRO staff engaged in the construction of roads in border areas, providing a much-needed boost to their comfort and efficiency.
SnowTent is a shining example of Indian innovation and ingenuity. Its development under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative demonstrates the country’s growing capabilities in the field of defense technology. As India continues to expand its military presence in high-altitude regions, SnowTent is poised to play a vital role in ensuring the well-being of its troops.
