CDM based CFL Lighting Scheme “ Bachat Lamp Yojana ”

1. CDM based CFL Lighting Scheme “Bachat Lamp Yojana” Initiated by

2. Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)

3. Overview • Objectives & benefits of BLY • Current Status • Scheme Architecture • Roles & Responsibilities of involved stakeholders • State wise BLY status & achievements • Barriers to BLY Scheme

4. Objective What • Quality long-life CFLs would be distributed to grid-connected residential households in exchange of a incandescent lamp (ICL) and INR 15 Who • Implementers who possess both finance and project management skills How • The project cost is covered through sale of GHG emission reductions also known as CERs achieved in the respective Project areas. Specifications of CFLs • Confirm to IS15111 viz. • Life >= 6000 hrs • Power factor >= 0.85 • Confirm to IS 418:2004 viz. • Lumen output >= the ICL replaced. • CFLs carry a BLY logo

5. Benefits of BLY Scheme • Compared to incandescent lamps, CFLs give 80% energy savings without compromising lumen intensity • This electricity saving is considered taking place directly at the generation end of grid. Since grid is fossil fuel dominated, savings translate to avoided CO2 from coal GHG reduction estimate • 1 tCO2e reduction can be achieved by replacing • Ten 100 W ICL or • Twenty 60 W ICL

6. Benefits to Stakeholders

7. Approach • Driver • Reduce first price of CFLs using CDM revenue for domestic users and accelerate Market Transformation. • Value Addition • CDM Programme of Activities registered on 29th April 2010. • BEE is the Co-ordinating and Managing Entity (CME) for BLY. Potential Benefit by 2020 • 0.5 million light-points per project, > 400 projects possible to cover India • Annual avoided capacity ~ 4000 MW

16. Support from BEE

17. Progress In Bachat Lamp Yojana • Registration of BLY as Small-Scale CDM Programme of Activities (SSC-PoA ) in the UNFCCC- EB on 29th April 2010. • 50 CPAs included in the BLY PoA. • Till now 29 million CFLs are distributed. • No. of empanelled investors with BEE - 4 • Monitoring & Verification process for BLY-PoA is initiated

18. Current Status* * As of September 2013 Geographic Coverage

19. CFL Distribution in Lakhs

20. Barriers • Sudden fall in CER prices in international markets (11 Euro to 0.1 Euro) • Uncertainty related to the international climate change negotiations • Increased raw material cost for CFL manufacturing (Tri-band phosphorus) • Reduction in fiscal benefits for CFL industries • Lack of investors due to low CER prices
