ENERGY

CONSERVATION
SCHEMES IN INDIA
 LATEST INDIAN GOVERNMENT
POLICIES
 The Energy Conservation Act (EC Act) was enacted in 2001 with the goal
of reducing energy intensity of Indian economy.
 Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) was set up as the statutory body on 1st
March 2002 at the central level to facilitate the implementation of the EC
Act.
 The Act provides regulatory mandate for: standards & labeling of
equipment and appliances; energy conservation building codes for
commercial buildings; and energy consumption norms for energy
intensive industries.
 In addition, the Act enjoins the Central Govt. and the Bureau to take
steps to facilitate and promote energy efficiency in all sectors of the
economy. The Act also directs states to designate agencies for the
implementation of the Act and promotion of energy efficiency in the
state.
 LATEST INDIAN GOVERNMENT
POLICIES
 The energy policy of India is largely defined by the country's
expanding energy deficit and increased focus on developing 
alternative sources of energy, particularly nuclear, solar and wind energy.
India ranks 81 position in overall energy self-sufficiency at 66% in 2014.
 The primary energy consumption in India grew by 7.9% in 2018 and is
the third biggest after China and USA with 5.8% global share. The total
primary energy consumption from crude oil (239.1 Mtoe; 29.55%),
natural gas (49.9 Mtoe; 6.17%), coal (452.2 Mtoe; 55.88%), nuclear
energy (8.8 Mtoe; 1.09%), hydro electricity (31.6 Mtoe; 3.91%) and 
renewable power (27.5 Mtoe; 3.40%) is 809.2 Mtoe (excluding traditional
biomass use) in the calendar year 2018.
 In 2018, India's net imports are nearly 205.3 million tons of crude oil and
its products, 26.3 Mtoe of LNG and 141.7 Mtoe coal totaling to 373.3
Mtoe of primary energy which is equal to 46.13% of total primary energy
consumption. India is largely dependent on fossil fuel imports to meet its
energy demands – by 2030
 LATEST INDIAN GOVERNMENT
POLICIES
 India's dependence on energy imports is expected to exceed 53% of the
country's total energy consumption. About 80% of India's electricity
generation is from fossil fuels. India is surplus in electricity generation
and also marginal exporter of electricity in 2017.Since the end of
calendar year 2015, huge power generation capacity has been idling for
want of electricity demand. India ranks second after China in renewables
production with 208.7 Mtoe in 2016.
 In view of the fact, that energy is handled by different Ministries that
have the primary responsibility of setting their own sectoral agenda, an
omnibus policy is required to achieve the goal of energy security through
coordination between these sources.
 This is also expected to mainstream emerging energy technologies, and
provide consumer energy choices.
 The NEP builds on the achievements of the earlier omnibus energy policy
– the Integrated Energy Policy (IEP), and sets the new agenda consistent
with the redefined role of emerging developments in the energy world.
 AIM OF THE POLICY
 The National Energy Policy (NEP) aims to chart the way forward to meet the
Government’s recent bold announcements in the energy domain.
 All the Census villages are planned to be electrified by 2018
 Universal electrification is to be achieved, with 24x7 electricity by 2022.
 The share of manufacturing in our GDP is to go up to 25% from the
present level of 16%
 The Ministry of Petroleum is targeting reduction of oil imports by 10%
from 2014-15 levels, both by 2022.
 Our NDCs target at reduction of emissions intensity by 33%-35% by 2030
over 2005, achieving a 175 GW renewable energy capacity by 2022,
 Share of non-fossil fuel based capacity in the electricity mix is aimed at
above 40% by 2030.

 POLICY OBJECTIVES
 There are four key objectives of our energy policy:
 Access at affordable prices:- Considering poverty and deprivation in
India, access to energy for all at affordable prices is of utmost importance.
 Improved security and Independence:-normally associated with
reduced import dependence, is also an important goal of the policy
 Greater Sustainability:-The goal of sustainability acquires added
importance and urgency in view of the threat of catastrophic effects of
climate change as well as the detrimental effects of fossil fuel usage on
local air quality
 Economic Growth:-the energy policy must also support the goal of rapid
economic growth. Efficient energy supplies promote growth in two ways.
First, energy is the lifeblood of the economy. It is an important enabling
factor of growth and its availability at competitive prices is critical to the
competitiveness of energy-intensive sectors. Second, being a vast sector
in itself, its growth can directly influence the overall growth in the
economy.
 ACTION PLAN
 The NEP proposes actions to meet the objectives in such a way that India’s
economy is ‘energy ready’ in the year 2040.
 Technological advancements and global energy markets are rapidly
changing.
 Our own bold economic reforms, which are likely to lead to robust
economic growth at double-digit annual rates over the next decade,
promise to transform the way energy is consumed and supplied.
 All four major energy-consuming sectors—industry, household, transport,
and agriculture—will undergo dramatic changes in the coming decades.
 On the energy front, they should be able to internalise volatility in energy
prices, which is often the case when markets get integrated globally.
 Urbanization is expected to go up to 47%, while current share of
manufacturing in the GDP will double to 30% by the year 2040.
 The population of India is predicted to go up to 1.6 billion by 2040.
 All these developments will result in the energy demand increasing by
2.7-3.2 times between years 2012 and 2040.
 The NEP must deliver the energy demanded at all times to support the
desired economic outcomes.
 POLICY FRAMEWORK

 In general, India's strategy is the encouragement of the development of 

renewable sources of energy by the use of incentives by the federal and
state governments.Other examples of encouragement by incentive
include the use of nuclear energy (
India Nuclear Cooperation Promotion Act), promoting windfarms and 
solar energy.
 A long-term energy policy perspective is provided by the Integrated
Energy Policy Report 2006 which provides policy guidance on energy-
sector growth.Increasing energy consumption associated primarily with
activities in transport, mining, and manufacturing in India needs
rethinking on India's energy production.
 Recent steep fall in international oil prices due to shale oil production
boom, would tilt the energy policy in favour of crude oil / natural gas.
 The following trends are manifested in the energy policy to achieve self
sufficiency, least pollution and long term sustainability

 TARIFFS/CHARGES

 Indian solar power PV tariff has fallen to ₹2.44 (3.5¢ US) per kWh in May

2017 which is lower than any other type of power generation in India.
 In the year 2019, the levelized tariff in US dollars for solar PV electricity
has fallen below 2.00 cents/kWh.
  Also the international tariff of solar thermal storage power plants has
fallen to US$0.063/kWh, which is cheaper than fossil fuel plants.
 The cheaper hybrid solar power (mix of solar PV and solar thermal
storage power) need not depend on costly and polluting coal/gas fired
power generation for ensuring stable grid operation.
 Solar electricity price is going to become the benchmark price for
deciding the other fuel prices (petroleum products, natural gas/biogas
/LNG, CNG, LPG, coal, lignite, biomass, etc.) based on their ultimate use
and advantages.

 The Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) was developed by Govt. of
India for new commercial buildings on 27th May 2007. ECBC sets
minimum energy standards for new commercial buildings having a
connected load of 100kW or contract demand of 120 KVA and above.
While the Central Government has powers under the EC Act 2001, the
state governments have the flexibility to modify the code to suit local or
regional needs and notify them. Currently eight States and Union
Territories (Rajasthan, Odisha, UT of Pondicherry, Uttrakhand, Punjab,
Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh & Telangana) notified and adopted the code
for their states.
 Currently, Voluntary Star Labelling programme for 4 categories of
buildings (day use office buildings/BPOs/Shopping malls/Hospitals) has
been developed and put in public domain.

 (vii) NATIONAL MISSION FOR ENHANCED ENERGY EFFICIENCY (NMEEE)
The NMEEE is one of the eight missions under the National Action Plan on
Climate Change (NAPCC). NMEEE aims to strengthen the market for energy
efficiency by creating conducive regulatory and policy regime and has
envisaged fostering innovative and sustainable business models to the
energy efficiency sector. The NMEEE spelt out four initiatives to enhance
energy efficiency in energy intensive industries are as follows:
 Perform Achieve and Trade Scheme (PAT), a market based mechanism

to enhance the cost effectiveness in improving the Energy Efficiency in

Energy Intensive industries through certification of energy saving which
can be traded.
 Market Transformation for Energy Efficiency (MTEE), for accelerating

the shift to energy efficient appliances in designated sectors through

innovative measures to make the products more affordable.
 Energy Efficiency Financing Platform (EEFP), for creation of

mechanisms that would help finance demand side management

programmes in all sectors by capturing future energy savings.
 Framework for Energy Efficient Economic Development (FEEED), for

development of fiscal instruments to promote energy efficiency.

 SCHEMES TO PROMOTE ENERGY
CONSERVATION AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY

 1. Perform, Achieve and Trade (PAT):  On 30th March, 2012 energy

saving targets for 478 designated consumers belonging to 8 sectors were
notified and on 4th June, 2012 the PAT was formally launched.
Consultations are conducted regularly post notification at state and
sector level to communicate and inform designated consumers about the
PAT implementation process, and to seek their views and experiences. In
the first cycle of PAT (ending in year 2014-15), 478 industrial units in 8
sectors (Aluminum, Cement, Chlor- Alkali, Fertilizer, Iron & Steel, Paper &
Pulp, Thermal Power, Textile) have been mandated to reduce their
specific energy consumption (SEC) i.e. energy used per unit of production.
The target reduction for each industrial unit is based on their current
levels of energy efficiency, so that energy efficient units will have low
target of percentage reduction, as compared to less energy efficient units
which will have higher targets.  Overall, the SEC reduction targets aim to
secure 4.05% reduction in energy consumption in these industries
totaling an energy saving of 6.686 million tonne of oil equivalent.

CONSERVATION AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
 2. Market Transformation for Energy Efficiency (MTEE): Under MTEE,
two programmes have been developed i.e. Bachat Lamp Yojana (BLY) and
Super Efficient Equipment Programme (SEEP).
2.1 Bachat Lamp Yojana (BLY): It is a public-private partnership program
comprising of BEE, Distribution Companies (DISCOMs) and private investors
to accelerate market transformation in energy efficient lighting.  Under this
program, over 29 million incandescent bulbs have been replaced by CFLs
under this programme.
2.2 Super Efficient Equipment Programme (SEEP): The other component
under MTEE is a new programme called Super-Efficient Equipment
Programme (SEEP). SEEP is a program designed to bring accelerated market
transformation for super efficient appliances by providing financial stimulus
innovatively at critical point/s of intervention.  Under this program, ceiling
fan has been identifies as the first appliance to adopted. SEEP for ceiling
fans aims to leapfrog to an efficiency level which will be about 50% more
efficient than market average.

MoUs have been signed with financial institutions to work together for the
development of energy efficiency market and for the identification of
issues related to this market development.
 MoUs with M/s, PTC India ltd, M/s. SIDBI, HSBC Bank, Tata Capital and
IFCI ltd have been signed by BEE to promote financing for energy
efficiency projects. BEE has developed training modules in collaboration
with HSBC and also conducted few training programs for financial
institutions on energy efficiency project financing.
 4. Framework for Energy Efficient Economic Development
(FEEED): Under this initiative two funds have been created viz. Partial Risk
Guarantee Fund for Energy Efficiency (PRGFEE) and Venture Capital Fund
for Energy Efficiency (VCFEE).
 SCHEMES TO PROMOTE ENERGY
CONSERVATION AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
 A. Partial Risk Guarantee Fund for Energy Efficiency (PRGFEE)
The PRGFEE is risk sharing mechanism to provide commercial banks with a
partial coverage of risk involved in extending loans for energy efficiency
projects. The Guarantee will not exceed Rs 3 crores per project or 50% of
loan amount, whichever is less.
 B. Venture Capital Fund for Energy Efficiency (VCFEE)

The VCFEE is a fund to provide equity capital for energy efficiency projects.
A single investment by the fund shall not exceed INR 2 Crores. The Fund
shall provide last mile equity support to specific energy efficiency projects,
limited to a maximum of 15% of total equity required, through Special
Purpose Vehicle (SPV) or INR 2 Crores, whichever is less.
 C. National Energy Conservation Award and Painting Competition

The National Energy Conservation Awards are presented to industry and

other establishments and prizes to the winners of the annual Painting
Competition on Energy Conservation for school children every year by the
Ministry of Power with the objective of promoting energy conservation
among all sectors of economy.
 CARBON CREDIT

 A carbon credit is a generic term for any tradable certificate or permit

representing the right to emit one tonne of carbon dioxide or the 
equivalent amount of a different greenhouse gas (tCO2e).
 Carbon credits and carbon markets are a component of national and
international attempts to mitigate the growth in concentrations of 
greenhouse gases (GHGs).
 One carbon credit is equal to one tonne of carbon dioxide, or in some
markets, carbon dioxide equivalent gases. Carbon trading is an
application of an emissions trading approach. Greenhouse gas emissions
are capped and then markets are used to allocate the emissions among
the group of regulated sources.
 The goal is to allow market mechanisms to drive industrial and
commercial processes in the direction of low emissions or less carbon
intensive approaches than those used when there is no cost to emitting 
carbon dioxide and other GHGs into the atmosphere.

 GREEN BUILDING CONCEPT
 What is Green Buildings?
A green Building uses less energy, water and other natural resources creates
less waste & Green House Gases and is healthy for people during living or
working inside as compared to a standard Building. Another meaning of
Green Structure is clean environment, water and healthy living. Buildings are
a major energy consuming sector in the economy. About 35 to 40% of total
energy is used by buildings during construction. The major consumption of
Energy in buildings is during construction and later in lighting or air-
conditioning systems. This consumption must be minimized, should be
limited to about 80-100 watts per sqm.
 Green Building Concept and Architecture Planning

 To have Green Building Concept, we should look after the following:

 Optimum use of Energy or power

 Water conservation

 Solid and Water Waste management, its treatment and reuse

 Energy efficient transport systems

 Efficient Building System Planning etc.

 GREEN BUILDING CONCEPT
 If all Buildings in urban areas were made to adopt green Building
concepts, India could save more than 8400 MW of power which is enough
to light half of Delhi or 5.5 lakh homes a year according to estimates by
TERI. A green building depletes very little of the natural resources during
its construction and operation.
 GREEN BUILDING CONCEPT
 Advantages of Green Building Materials
Green building materials offer some or all of the following benefits to the
building owner and building occupants:
 Reduced maintenance/ replacement costs over the life of the building

 Energy conservation

 Improved occupant health and productivity

 Life cycle cost savings

 Lower costs associated with changing space configurations.

 Greater design flexibility

 Sustainable Development or Sustainable Building Concept

It is a development that meets the needs of present without compromising

the needs of future generations to come. The concept of sustainable
building incorporates and integrates a variety of strategies during the
design, construction and operation of building projects. The use of green
building materials and products represents one important strategy in the
design of a building. As more than 40% population is living in the cities so
these cites should be made Sustainable first.
