Bureau of Energy Efficiency

• Established in 2002, under the Energy Conservation Act, 2001.

• Improve energy efficiency through various regulatory and promotional instruments– Plan, manage and implement provisions the EC Act

• Appliance standards and labeling• Industrial energy benchmarks• Energy Conservation Building Codes• Monitor energy use in high energy-consumption

units• Certify and accredit energy auditors and energy

managers– Provide a policy framework and direction to national

energy conservation activities– Disseminate information and knowledge, and

facilitate pilot and demonstration projects– Establish EE delivery systems through Public-Private

Partnerships (PPP).2

Bachat Lamp Yojana to promote energy efficient and high quality CFLs as replacement for incandescent bulbs in households.

Standards & Labeling Scheme targets high energy end use equipment and appliances to lay down minimum energy performance standards.

Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) sets minimum energy performance standards for new commercial buildings.

Agricultural and Municipal DSM targeting replacement of inefficient pumpsets, street lighting, etc.

Operationalising EC Act by Strengthening Institutional Capacity of State Designated Agencies (SDAs) : The scheme seeks to build institutional capacity of the newly created SDAs to perform their regulatory, enforcement and facilitative functions in the respective States.

Energy Efficiency Improvement in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs): To stimulate energy efficiency measures in 25 high energy consuming small and medium enterprise clusters.

Energy Efficiency – Action Plan

Bachat Lamp YojnaBachat Lamp Yojna((CDM Based Lighting Project for House hold))

First pilot project registered by UNFCCC in September 2008 .

(National Roll out to be take place shortly)

Targeted 400 Millions incandescent Lamps and its replacement to CFLs at the price of incandescent bulbs to avoid 4000 MW Capacity Addition.

The difference in cost would be recovered through the carbon credits CERs that accrue because of their lower energy use.

CFLs distribution by Private-sector companies and DISCOMs

Mission- S&L ProgrammeMission- S&L Programme

•To reduce overall energy consumption by use of Energy Efficient equipments/

appliances 18 BU by 2012 (~3000 MW).

•Targeted an avoided capacity addition of over 3000 MW during XI plan of Govt. of India

Institutional frame work for regulation

• BIS – National Standards Body Formulation & Implementation of National

Standards Production certification, Quality system

certification, EMS certification etc.• Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE)

BEE is established to implement & monitor the Energy Conservation Act, 2001

One of the key thrust areas of EC Act, 2001 is Standards & Labeling Programme

Formulation of Energy Efficiency Standards.

• Laboratories accredited by National Accreditation Board of Laboratories

• Educational Institutions.• Manufacturers and Manufacturing Associations• Consumer Organizations• Ministries and key stakeholders.

Importance of star labeling

Meaning of star labeling %

Star labeling is useful for saving electricity 52

It saves energy 20

More star saves more power 19

Good quality product 13

It has more advance technology 5

It depends upon the number of stars in it 3

They told about power saving with star level products

Role of Consumer

• Look for star label, even for non –

mandatory products

• Use of CFL (home and

commercial)

• Role of RWA’s in raising

awareness

• Life cost over original cost
