1 Useful tips to Save Energy 1. Lighting Turn off the lights when not in use. Turn off the lights when not in use. Take advantage of daylight by using light-coloured, loose-weave curtains on your windows to allow daylight to penetrate the room. Also, decorate with lighter colours that reflect daylight. Take advantage of daylight by using light-coloured, loose-weave curtains on your windows to allow daylight to penetrate the room. Also, decorate with lighter colours that reflect daylight. De-dust lighting fixtures to maintain illumination. De-dust lighting fixtures to maintain illumination. Use task lighting; instead of brightly lighting an entire room, focus the light where you need it. Use task lighting; instead of brightly lighting an entire room, focus the light where you need it. Use electronic ballast chokes in place of conventional copper chokes. Use electronic ballast chokes in place of conventional copper chokes. Use LED Lamps instead of conventional incandescent bulbs. A 16w LED bulb can be as bright as 150w halogen lamp. LED lamp consumes 1/3 rd of CFL energy and 1/30 th energy of incandescent bulbs. The lifespan of incandescent lamps is around 1000 hours while the lifesplan of CFL is 8,000 hours and lifespan of LED lamps is around 25,000 hours. LED Lamps are Mercury free and their lifetime cycle is unaffected by switching ON and OFF operations. Use LED Lamps instead of conventional incandescent bulbs.

8 WHAT IS DEMAND SIDE MANAGEMENT? Demand Side management is a mechanism to influence customer’s CAPABILITY and WILLINGNESS to reduce electricity consumption. Demand Side Management is a utility program aiming to fine-tune consumers’ energy consumption pattern, according to the utility’s energy production and distribution capacity. Demand-side management (DSM) programs consist of the planning, implementing, and monitoring activities of electric utility that are designed to encourage consumers to modify their level and pattern of electricity usage. Demand side management relies on a combination of using high efficiency equipment and efficient use of electricity through good operating practice. Demand Side Management (DSM) is the implementation of policies and measures which serve to control, influence and generally reduce electricity demand. DSM aims to improve final electricity-using systems, reduce consumption, while preserving the same level of service and comfort.

9 OBJECTIVES OF DSM 1: Reliability and Stability 1: Reliability and Stability DSM provides enhanced reliability to the energy system by reducing overall demand through energy efficiency and by reducing peak demand through dispatchable programs. DSM provides enhanced reliability to the energy system by reducing overall demand through energy efficiency and by reducing peak demand through dispatchable programs. It also reduces transmission and distribution costs relative to a supply side resource It also reduces transmission and distribution costs relative to a supply side resource DSM increases diversity of energy sources DSM increases diversity of energy sources 2: Low Cost/Affordability 2: Low Cost/Affordability The cost of DSM is technology specific and varies relative to other supply side resources The cost of DSM is technology specific and varies relative to other supply side resources Dispatchable DSM programs can be called when their cost is lower than alternative market purchases Dispatchable DSM programs can be called when their cost is lower than alternative market purchases Cost-effective resource planning can ensure that DSM is only procured up to the point where it is cheaper than supply alternatives Cost-effective resource planning can ensure that DSM is only procured up to the point where it is cheaper than supply alternatives DSM can also help low-income customers reduce their energy costs DSM can also help low-income customers reduce their energy costs

10 Types of DSM Programs Following three factors reduce energy consumption (kWh) and peak demand (kW), however, emphasis differs Following three factors reduce energy consumption (kWh) and peak demand (kW), however, emphasis differs - Energy Efficiency – emphasis is on reducing overall energy consumption and also peak demand over several years. - Peak Load Management – emphasis is on reducing peak demand consistently over a season. - Demand Response – emphasis is on reducing peak demand for short periods of time for a few days during the year.

13 CFL Purchase Options  Consumers were encouraged to purchase CFLs directly from suppliers or from BESCOM on a monthly installment basis paid through electricity bills. Benefits derived  Estimated that about 1.75 Lakhs additional CFLs were sold during the scheme implementation  About 100% increase in sales of CFLS was observed compares to the previous year which resulted in:  Reduction in residential demand to an extent of 10.46MWs.  This Pilot project encouraged in formulation of Bachat Lamp Yojana in the country. It enforced manufacturers to give one year warranty to the customers. This scheme lead to regulation stipulating a minimum power factor of 0.85 for CFLs. 1.
