Backgound : 

Backgound Lighting accounts for 19% of global electricity consumption and gives rise to CO2 emissions that are equivalent to 70% of those from the world’s light-duty vehicles. About 2.4 million barrels of oil per day are used to provide lighting for vehicles and for 1.6 billion people living in non-electrified households in developing countries. A large proportion of total lighting energy is used by inefficient technologies, e.g.. incandescent lamps, mercury vapour lamps, low-efficacy fluorescent lamps with low-efficiency ballasts, etc.

Importance of Energy Efficient Lighting : 

Importance of Energy Efficient Lighting Rising energy prices Global climate change Economic Growth Exhaustion of the non renewable resources used in electricity generation Reduces the investments necessary for the expansion of the electric power sector.

Lighting Strategies :

Relative level of use of various lighting sources : 

Relative level of use of various lighting sources This graph shows the estimated global average share of electric light production by lamp type and end use sector in 2005

System efficacy for light sources : 

System efficacy for light sources This figure shows the system efficacy for various light sources used for general lighting

Energy Efficient Lighting includes: : 

Energy Efficient Lighting includes: More efficacious lamps, More efficient ballasts, Better luminaires, Improved controls, Greater use of daylight and Better overall lighting design.

Market barriers to be addressed : 

Market barriers to be addressed Lack of information Low consumer familiarity with high-efficiency lighting technology. Incremental capital equipment cost: high purchase prices of CFLs compared to incandescent technologies. Lack of financing options for investment in high-efficiency lighting equipment, both at the household consumer level, and among commercial and municipal entities. Lack of inadequate incentives through the design and supply chain Lack of institutional capacity within electric utilities to administer and deliver lighting efficiency programs.

BEE Policies and Programmes for Energy Efficient Lighting : 

BEE Policies and Programmes for Energy Efficient Lighting Information labels:, Voluntary star-labeling programme introduced for tubelights; to be extended to CFLs and ballasts. Building code: Energy Conservation Building Code is being applied to lighting systems in new-build, large commercial buildings. Financial incentives, market transformation and promotion CFL promotion in households through the Bachat Lamp Yojana; Pilot projects to demonstrate energy-efficient streetlighting Creating a favourable environment for energy service companies: 8 central-government buildings upgraded through ESCOs; another 300 government buildings being prepared for ESCO-based upgradation

Bureau of Energy Efficiency : 

Bureau of Energy Efficiency The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) was established on 1st March 2002, under the Energy Conservation (EC) Act, 2001. BEE is responsible for spearheading the improvement of energy efficiency in the economy through various regulatory and promotional instruments.

Standards & Labelling Program : 

Standards & Labelling Program Standards and Labelling Programme announced by Ministry of Power, on 18th May, 2006 initially on voluntary basis. Evolve minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) for notified equipment and appliances. Enable consumers to make informed choice House-hold refrigerators, fluorescent tube lights, air conditioners, motors and distribution transformers have been included in the programme on voluntary basis; labeling in the process of becoming mandatory Labels for other appliances/equipment, such as CFLs, ballasts, pumps, LPG and kerosene stoves, vehicles, ceiling fans, geysers, and consumer electronics are under preparation Target for BEE : avoided capacity addition of over 3000 MW during XI plan; 250 MW achieved in 2007-08. Label for Tubular Fluorescent lamps

Energy Conservation Building Code : 

Energy Conservation Building Code ECBC was launched by Govt of India on 27th May 2007. The code is intended for new commercial buildings having a connected load of more than 500 kW. The code has initially been launched on voluntary basis. Energy saving potential of 23% to 46% in end uses such as lighting, cooling ventilation and refrigeration etc. The major components of the building which are being addressed through the code are: Building Envelope (Walls, Roofs, Windows) Lighting Systems HVAC Water Heating and Pumping System Electrical Distribution system. Emphasis on daylighting; lighting load specification of less than 1 W/sq m

Bachat Lamp Yojna : 

Bachat Lamp Yojna Bachat Lamp Yojna a CDM based scheme which seeks to replace estimated 400 million incandescent bulbs by CFLs which could save estimated 6000 MW by 2012 BEE is in the process of preparing a Programme of Activities (PoA) which is a voluntary coordinated effort to facilitate the scheme in the entire country and reduce transaction costs of individual projects 18 CFL manufacturers/ suppliers have agreed to participate- 14 states have taken up steps towards implemetation of scheme in their respective DISCOM regions. Monitoring Plan has been finalised 1 pilot project registered at UNFCCC on 26th Sept 2008.PDDs for Haryana , Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra have been submitted to CDM Executive Board for registration Leveraging of CDM revenues to remove the high first cost barrier to enable market transformation in favour of efficient lighting.

Energy Service Companies : 

Energy Service Companies Upgradation in existing buildings through ESCOs 8 central government buildings upgraded through ESCOs; savings of 20%+ being achieved Investment-grade audits of over 300 more government buidlings and 100 streetlighting systems under preparation across the country, in preparation for upgradation through ESCOs 34 firms empanelled as ESCOs, and accredited by CRISIL/ICRA Facilitation of financing of ESCOs on a project-financing basis
