Overview of Lighting Energy in India India – Facts: • Year 1947 Power Generation was 1362 MW • Year 2004 Power generation – 100,000 MW • Electrification of > 500,000 Villages • Year 2001 – 44% households without Electricity • Present Per Capita Consumption – 350 wh • Supply vs. Peak Demand Gap – 39,816 million Units (Peak Demand Gap = 17%) ELCOMA
Demand Side Management • Lighting Consumes 18% of Power in India as against 8 – 10% in Developed countries • 13% of the peak load in Indian power system occurs for 365 hours a year – i.e. one hour per day at dusk • In 44% households without Electricity, people still use kerosene lanterns which affect their lungs and eyes, besides generating high soot and pollution • Energy backlog has concerned the government • Unable to meet Demand / Supply Gap ELCOMA
Short term Solution • The most effective and practical solutions to achieve immediate relief and reduction in the peak load demand is to replace : • GLS by CFL • 40W Fluorescent tube light by 36W (or 28W) FTL • Electromagnetic ballasts by Electronic ballasts “ A WATT SAVED IS 2.5 WATTS GENERATED”. ELCOMA
Why CFL ? CFL lamps can easily replace GLS lamps and offer the following benefits : • Relatively small investment per point (Rs.100 - 150) • Easy to install retrofit solution • High luminous efficacy • Saves 80% on electrical energy for same light output when compared to GLS lamps • Have longer life (6 – 12 times longer than GLS) • Wide range of shapes, sizes and colours for varied applications • Environment friendly. ELCOMA
Cost Benefit Analysis ELCOMA
Barriers to use of CFL • Affordability • Performance • Awareness ELCOMA
MANUFACTURERS HAVE ALREADY REDUCED PRICE OF CFL OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS AND CAN MAKE THE LAMPS MORE AFFORDABLE WITH GOVT. SUPPORT Affordability • CFL lamps cost 8–15 times more than GLS • This is down from 20-25 times only 2 years ago • Further cost reductions shall accrue with : • Volume growth - Concessional sales tax (VAT) of 4% • Lower component customs duties (special glass, Tri-band fluorescent powder, electronic circuits) • Lower excise duties ELCOMA
Performance CHEAP CFL FROM CHINA HAD RUINED THE MARKET AND CUSTOMER HAD LOST CONFIDENCE IN CFL • The BIS standard is now in place and specifies the performance criteria • Standards have been made mandatory – to be effective 18 months from 24th August 2005 • Many local manufacturers have BIS approvals for the CFL lamps • Performance guarantees offered by manufacturers. • Labeling Program initiated by Bureau of Energy Efficiency THE MANDATORY BIS MARKING AND ENERGY LABELLING WILL BUILD CONSUMER CONFIDENCE ELCOMA
Awareness • In a survey in India barely 5% knew about CFL (Australia – 80%) • Retailers not taking pains to explain to consumers on cost benefits in long term • Public Education Program by Government not adequate • Industry ads talked only of 80% power saving ELCOMA
Government initiative on Energy Conservation • March 2005: All Central Govt. buildings to be renovated with energy efficient lighting – to start with Rashtrapati Bhavan, PM’s house • June 2005: Chandigarh Government Directive to all Government Buildings to convert with Energy Efficient lighting • Workshop on 6th August at Delhi on Energy Efficiency in Lighting, attended by Senior Utility Staff, CFL mfrs., Regulatory Commissions, Govt. officials, Central / State PWD, Municipalities, Financial Agencies, DSM Lighting Experts, Consultants etc • Seminar on Efficient Lighting at Nagpur 12-16 Sept 2005 • PWD Workshop at Mumbai 20th Sept • BEE Education Programs – Children Painting Contest, Best Energy Efficient Building Awards ELCOMA
Industry Initiative • Regular price reduction • One year warranty • Exhibitions & Seminars • Support to BIS and BEE • Regular interaction with Government • Consumer Education Program • Press • Handbills • Exhibitions / Seminars ELCOMA
Agenda for participants • Educate large Electricity Users on energy efficient lighting • Initiative to start with own buildings and installations • Involve Utilities and Users at the same platform • Short Term solution to convert GLS points by CFL • Initiate BESCOM like projects ELCOMA
Agenda contd.. • Conduct local audit of energy consumption • Work out plans for immediate replacements of GLS points with CFL or FTL • Carry out educational programs in local areas through Power Supply utilities (Message in the Electricity bill) • Organize long term payment schemes for consumers like BESCOM, through local suppliers or Power Finance Corporation ELCOMA
