In a move to promote energy efficiency, Delhi power distribution company
(discom) BSES on Friday signed an agreement on a strategic partnership
with Energy Efficiency Services Ltd (EESL) to launch a 12-month pilot
"Energy Efficient Appliance Program".
Announcing the agreement
between BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd (BRPL) and EESL, a statement said that
it would cover over 25 lakh residential and institutional consumers in
south and west Delhi under the BRPL's jurisdiction.
"Through this
programme, BRPL consumers would be able to procure several optimally
priced energy-efficient appliances, including the super-efficient air
conditioners," it said
"These ACs will be made available under
the 'Super Efficient Air Conditioning Program', which is an intrinsic
part of the overall 'Energy Efficient Appliance Program' and are around
40 per cent more efficient than the current 3-star technology.
"This
association will enable BRPL consumers to procure five kinds of
energy-efficient appliances like super-efficient ACs, induction cook
stoves, BEE 5-star rated energy-efficient fans, LED tubelights (20W) at
optimal prices," it added.
BSES said these would go a long way both in conserving energy as well as helping consumers save money.
"Besides promoting energy efficiency, the programme will also help reduce the peak power demand in south and west Delhi."
According
to the statement, EESL will undertake all sourcing, supply, complaint
management and redressal, and fulfilment of warranty obligation duties
for the products.
"EESL will mobilise the capital of Rs 150 crore
for the Super Efficient Air Conditioning module of the program, while
redeeming its investment through upfront payments for the
super-efficient ACs from consumers," it said.
"The discovered
prices of ACs are expected to be 20-30 per cent less than the retail
costs of similar technologies currently available in the market."
Commenting
on the partnership, BRPL Chief Executive Amal Sinha said: "The
resulting synergies are expected to benefit consumers in a more
meaningful way, as also create a roadmap for other distribution
companies across the country to emulate for bringing about substantial
benefits to the nation."
"We are working towards making this
programme and its benefits available to all consumers across the
nation," said EESL Managing Director Saurabh Kumar.
A dedicated
web portal - www.EESLmart.in - was also launched on the occasion through
which consumers can purchase these energy-efficient appliances.
