SINGAPORE, Feb. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Digital Edge today announced a major step forward in its sustainability strategy in India with the signing of a renewable energy Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Hexa Climate Solutions Pvt Ltd (Hexa) following a competitive tender, covering up to 83MW of solar energy to support the first phase of its 350MW AI-ready hyperscale BOM campus, which is currently under development in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra.

The addition of 83MW of renewable power is expected to offset approximately 100,000 tonnes of CO2 annually, a figure that will scale significantly as Digital Edge India’s (DEI) full renewable energy program is deployed at the campus. The power will be delivered in phases starting December 2026 and represents the maximum renewable energy capacity permissible under current regulations for the initial development phase. Demonstrating its long-term commitment to sustainable infrastructure in India, DEI will take a substantial minority equity stake in the associated renewable energy projects, ensuring captive user status.

The BOM campus is the first project developed under the joint venture between Digital Edge, the National Investment and Infrastructure Fund (NIIF) and AGP Sustainable Assets, established to advance India’s digital transformation.

In parallel, DEI has partnered with its customers and the local community to deploy market-leading liquid cooling powered by 10 million litres of recycled water per day – an industry first in India that the company intends to replicate across suitable markets. This innovative greywater and cooling solution will enable the BOM campus to target an annualized PUE [Power Utilization Effectiveness] of 1.25 and Water Utilization Effectiveness below 1.75, while providing a new source of revenue for the community through the purchase of grey water that would otherwise be discharged into the ocean by the municipality.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As Health Awareness Week brings focus to preventive care and chronic condition management, VARON is highlighting the vital role respiratory health plays in overall well-being. Through its “Your Health, Our Commitment” initiative, the company is promoting greater awareness of breathing health while expanding access to supportive solutions for individuals managing long-term respiratory needs.

While cardiovascular health and metabolic conditions often dominate public discussion, respiratory health remains a foundational—yet frequently overlooked—component of overall wellness. Every organ relies on oxygen to function efficiently. When oxygen intake or blood oxygen saturation falls below optimal levels, the consequences extend beyond shortness of breath, potentially affecting sleep, cognition, heart function, and daily energy.

Why Respiratory Health Matters

The lungs play a critical role in transferring oxygen into the bloodstream, where it binds to hemoglobin and is delivered throughout the body. For individuals living with COPD, asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, post-viral lung changes, or sleep-related breathing disorders, this oxygen exchange process may become less efficient.

Chronic low oxygen levels can contribute to:

• Persistent fatigue
• Morning headaches
• Reduced exercise tolerance
• Cognitive fog
• Increased cardiovascular strain

Respiratory care professionals emphasize that consistent monitoring and early intervention are essential. When oxygen saturation regularly falls below physician-recommended levels, supplemental oxygen therapy may be prescribed as part of a long-term care plan.

Modern home-based oxygen therapy solutions can help provide stable oxygen support without the logistical challenges associated with traditional oxygen tanks, enabling individuals to maintain therapy more safely and comfortably in their daily living environment.

Daily Practices That Support Lung Function

In observance of Health Awareness Week, VARON encourages individuals to adopt practical, evidence-informed habits that support respiratory health:

• Structured Breathing Exercises

Techniques such as diaphragmatic breathing and pursed-lip breathing may help improve ventilation efficiency and ease breathlessness.

• Indoor Air Quality Management

Reducing airborne irritants, minimizing smoke exposure, and maintaining balanced humidity can contribute to long-term lung protection.

• Gradual Physical Conditioning

Low-impact aerobic activity supports improved oxygen utilization and cardiovascular endurance.

• Oxygen Monitoring

For at-risk individuals, pulse oximetry tracking under medical guidance can help detect early changes in oxygen saturation.

• Appropriate Oxygen Support

When appropriately used, supplemental oxygen therapy may improve quality of life and help reduce complications associated with chronic hypoxemia.

For individuals who maintain active routines or travel frequently, advancements in lightweight portable oxygen support technologies now allow therapy to continue with greater flexibility and continuity.

Expanding Access During Health Awareness Week

To support awareness with meaningful action, VARON is introducing limited-time Health Awareness Week initiatives aimed at improving access to respiratory support solutions. These include sitewide savings, enhanced offers on select oxygen systems, and added support resources for qualifying orders.

The initiative is designed to help reduce financial barriers for individuals who may have postponed investing in respiratory care equipment due to cost concerns.

Featured Oxygen Support Options

As part of the campaign, several oxygen solutions tailored to varying respiratory needs are being highlighted:

• VP-8 Lite Portable Oxygen Concentrator – A lightweight pulse-flow system designed for daily mobility and simplified operation
• VP-6 Continuous Portable Oxygen Concentrator – Continuous flow support up to 6L with integrated nebulizer functionality
• VP-8G Ultra Portable Oxygen Concentrator – Ultra-portable system offering flexible pulse flow settings
• VH-2 Pro Home Oxygen Concentrator – Continuous flow solution with intelligent oxygen purification
• Serene 3 (3L) and Serene 5 (5L) Home Oxygen Concentrators – Reliable home therapy systems delivering clinical-grade oxygen concentration

Each oxygen machine is developed to support consistent oxygen delivery, ease of use, and patient comfort—factors respiratory specialists often identify as essential to long-term therapy adherence.

A Preventive Health Perspective

Health Awareness Week is a reminder that respiratory wellness is not only reactive—it is preventive. Early screening, lifestyle adjustments, and timely use of prescribed oxygen therapy can help reduce hospitalizations, improve energy levels, and support greater independence.

By combining education with practical support options, VARON’s campaign reinforces a broader message: maintaining respiratory health requires both awareness and proactive steps.

Limited-time Health Awareness Week initiatives are designed to help make respiratory support more accessible. Individuals are encouraged to consult healthcare professionals and explore educational resources to better understand their respiratory needs.
