3. Daikin Launches Affordable 0.8-ton Split AC at US$ 231
On the occasion of Daikin’s 95th anniversary, Daikin Air-conditioning India has introduced a locally conceptualized and manufactured wall-mounted split type room air conditioner (RAC) in the Indian market, priced at US$ 231 plus piping, installation charges, and taxes.

4. Russian Chiller Market
When looking at the Russian chiller market dynamics, one obvious trend emerges. At the turn of the century, the U.S. giants Carrier, YORK, and Trane dominated, with up to 60% of total sales. Then over time, the share of the U.S. giants decreased gradually. This became especially marked after the global financial crisis of 2008–2009. A degree of inversion of the trend could be observed in 2013 alone, when preparation for the 2014 Winter Olympics was underway and many large construction projects were realized in Sochi, the Olympic venue. YORK equipment was mainly used for these projects. Later, from 2013 to 2016, the share of the U.S. giants dropped from 41% to 19%, because leading Italian manufacturers dominated the Russian market. They eroded the share of the U.S. giants thanks to the competitive prices of their chillers. However, the U.S. giants recovered their share in 2018–2019 to the mid-2000s level, mainly thanks to the price-cutting policy of them.
