Introduction: India spent Rs. 3,40,572 cr. Excess Energy in 2007 compared to U.K. & Denmark. Energy Conservation has to be seriously implemented by all of us for less carbon emission and less electric bill, and to keep India as a developed nation much before 2020. In pursuance of the decisions taken by Prime Minister and Dy. Chairman, Planning Commission, GOI, New Delhi, it has been decided to setup 21 member “Expert Committee” in 8/2004 on Integrated Energy Policy to study the requirement of energy (Electricity, Coal, Petroleum, Oil & Gas) for the next 25 years for India. The report was submitted to the Government in 08/2006, by the Planning Commission, after having discussions, Round Table conferences etc. headed by the then Member (Energy), Planning Commission, GOI, Dr.Kirit S Parikh. Central Cabinet approved the Document on 26th December 2008. The 1st Page in the report “THE CHALLENGES”, said, India Energy Intensity was 0.16kgoe (Kilo gram oil equivalent) per capita for 1 US $ GDP in PPP (Purchasing Power Parity) terms compared to 0.13 kgoe for Denmark in 2003. Energy Intensity is the energy required for manufacturing a product / for extending services etc. This 0.03 kgoe excess energy intensity in India per capita for 1 US $ GDP in PPP terms is equivalent to Rs. 2,86,675 cr. excess spent. There was a saving of Rs. 65,000 cr. in 2007 by improving energy efficiency, better conservation methods adopted compared to 2006 in India. Still there was excess spending of energy for Rs. 3,40,572 cr. (8% of our GDP) with more CO2 emission. Our country has to become developed nation quickly, the earlier we reduce excess energy spending by minimizing wastage, in electricity, oil, gas, water & food etc., following energy conservation methods still effectively, improving energy efficiency systems still & for less carbon emission. Abstract : I studied some Central and State Government buildings, IITs and NITs as far as energy consumption, and energy conservation aspects. This shows how much excess energy is used, than required in different Government buildings and institutions. Reactive power in Northern states have to be added by 5000 Mvar as on date in Transcos and Discoms for better quality of electricity to the Public in general. The excess usage of energy for Rs. 3,40,572 Cr. in 2007 in India is to be reduced. It is requested for speedy implementation of Energy Conservation act 2001 effectively by lowering energy intensity by plugging wastage in Govt. Buildings for becoming India developed nation before 2020. We will be celebrating “Energy Conservation Day” every year on 14th December. BEE, under Ministry of Power GOI, has been showing Rs. 3,000 Cr. saving for 2007, below 1% of excess energy spent by India. Hence I personally request that the matter has to be monitored monthly from Prime Minister’s Office / Planning Commission Office only (since the subject is interlinked with several ministries), GOI by reducing energy requirements through energy efficiency and conservation, till India reduced energy intensity on par with UK & Denmark.

Recommendations of Integrated of Energy Policy India faces an enormous challenge if it is to meet her energy requirement over the coming 25 years and support a growth rate of 8 percent. This challenge can be met with a coherent approach, which develops all available energy resources. The main area of action, for which detailed policy recommendations have been make as follows. 1. Reducing energy requirements through energy efficiency and conservation. 2. Augmenting energy resources and supply. 3. Rationalization of fuel prices to mimic free market prices that promote efficient fuel choice an substitution. 4. Promoting coal imports. 5. Accelerating power sector reforms. 6. Cutting cost of power. 7. Encouraging renewables and local solutions. 8. Enhancing energy security. 9. Promoting and focusing energy R&D. 10. Promoting household energy security, gender equity and empowerment through targeted entitlements for the poor. 11. Creating an enabling environment and regulatory oversight for competitive efficiency. With the implementation of the recommendations of the committee India can meet her energy requirement in an efficient, cost effective way and be on a path sustainable energy security. My paper presently deals with energy conservation case studies and excess energy India is using compare to Countries like UK, Denmark etc. Energy conservation act 2001 had been in operation since 01-03-2002 with BEE under ministry of Power, GOI. Our hon’ble Prime Minister recently on our 63rd Independence day addressing the nation from Red Fort said we need a new culture of energy conservation, since our natural resources are limited. Excess Energy Spent in 2007 – Detailed Analysis : For 2007, India used TPES (Total Primary Energy Supply) 594.91 Mtoe. India energy intensity for 2007 is 0.1478 kgoe, TPES/GDP in PPP, in per Capita. Denmark energy intensity is 0.1144 kgoe. If we consider our energy intensity on par with Denmark, the excess energy saving will be 0.0334 kgoe. India total TPES = 594.91 Mtoe. Excess Energy India spending = 0.0334 x 594.91 / 0.1478 = 134.44 Mtoe. = 985.45 Million Barrel oe. (1T = 7.33 Barl) = Rs. 3,40,871.5 cr. (1 Bar = $72, 1$= Rs.48) TPES for India = 591.91 x 7.33 = 4360.69 M.B. (Million Barrels)

TPES, cost = Rs.15,07,055 cr. Excess Energy in India spent in 2007 w.r.t. Denmark = 22.6% = Rs. 3,40,572 cr. ≅ 8% of GDP of our Country. Saving in India in 2007 compared to 2006 = 0.0063 kgoe. For 594.91 Mote saving is 25.36 Mote = 185.875 M.B. = Rs. 64,238.46 cr. (1 ton = 7.33 barrel, 1 barrel = 72$, 1 $ = Rs. 48. This has not reflected in Energy Intensity when it is taken for 2nd decimal place. When it is taken up to 4th decimal place, saving of Rs. 64,239 cr. was achieved by India. (Noticed) For 2006 TPES is 565.82 Mtoe at 0.15 kgoe. Saving of 0.01 kgoe, compared to 2003 = 37.72 Mote = Rs.95588 cr. (1 ton = 7.33 barrel, 1 barrel = 72$, 1 $ = Rs. 48. Power shortage is at 9.6%, peak demand shortage is at 13.8% for us. Singareni Collieries Company Ltd., increased coal production increased from 37.72 Mt in 200607 to 41.5Mt in 2008-09. Energy consumption declined from 16.77 Kwh / ton of coal 13.93 kwh / ton. This is the one of the best examples in lowering energy intensity by 2.84 kwh / ton of coal excavation with 4 Mt excess also. Their employees quarters were also metered and billed and the energy consumption as come down from 500 units to 182 units monthly in 2006-07. The electric bill as also come down from Rs. 250 cr. to Rs. 170 cr. The college authorities used to pay electric consumption bill for Rs. 10 lakhs kwh (units) monthly in one of the engineering colleges in Andhra Pradesh. When the management informed the student to pay there hostel electric bill, the monthly consumption has come down to 5 lakh kwh (units). The college authority did a good thing in reducing the energy intensity. I request all college authorities also to cooperate in reducing energy intensity from the hostels duly appraising the students for paying less electric bill. BITS Pilani, NIT Suratkal students have been consuming 70-80 kwh (Units) monthly. Solar energy for hot water has been using in BITS Pilani with 80,000 Ltrs. / day, followed by IIT Delhi, IIT Nagpur, to name some colleges. Indian Railways has 3180 locos out of which 161 locos have regeneration capacity. These gave 59.18mu yearly. If all locos are provided regeneration capacity (Regen-Converter), 1370 mu energy is available by reducing the electrical bill 12% and improve energy efficiency, reduce energy intensity. An investment of Rs. 1.5cr for each loco with a pay back period of 8 years will make the project successful. Let us hope Indian Railways do fast in this regard who had remitted Rs. 1 lakh cr. to Govt.A/c., wiping out all deficit.

Effective – Reactive Power Western Railways, Mumbai received Rs. 7.24 cr. incentive on Rs. 107cr electricity bill by maintaining power factor at 0.99 lag in 2006-07. All organization, make the industries, institutions, Govt. Buildings, the total inductive load has to be compensated by automatic power factor regulators, by keeping required capacitor banks with a frequent check (weekly at least) for less electric bill and quality of power with less CO2 emission. Northern Zone states have to add 5000 mvar for their Transco / Discoms as on 30-09-09 (www.cea.nic.in). Just by erecting and commissioning required capacitors at 220kv, 132kv & 66kv in Transcos and 33kv and 11kv in Discoms will have to lower electric bill with lower energy intensity. For 1 MW connected load at 11kv system, for 0.999 lag power factor, it takes 52.5 amps. If the power factor is at 0.8 lag, it takes 65.5 amps, 13 amps excess, for just 1 MW. Concerned Govt. authorities, and Pvt. Setor have to take advantage of their connected load, inductive nature with well compensated by capacitors for better power factor. Some Methods to Lowering Energy Intensity / Conserving Energy. 1. A study of 27 Central / State Govt. Buildings at head quarters was done. For 2005-06 NTPC, employee per month used 48 units (kwh), against 480 units by Gail staff in H.Q. this is 10 times more than NTPC Employee used. No quota has been fixed in office buildings for usage. Considerable excess energy has been using. This is to be minimized. Chart Enclosed. 2. Energy usage Reputed Institutes like IITs, NITs, IISc, BITS, Pilani, was studied. Among all Bits, Pilani, has been conserving energy very well compared to IIT Kanpur & other IITs Chart Enclosed. 3. 4800 MVAr. has been is in need for northern zone as on 30-09-09 (Cea website). This reactive power has to be converted to active power by providing adequate capacitor banks for immediate conversion of 4,800 MW. Mvar in other zones is ok. As a matter of fact, all the inductive loads are be compensated with suitable capacitor banks for better quality of electricity and less electric bill. 4. CFLs usage should be implemented speedily for saving 6000-9000 MW for 400 million Nos. in India. 5. Senior officers have to inspect at random the energy conservation measures, and energy usage in the buildings they are in association during inspections. Agricultural farmers are to be provided better quality of foot valves, Capacitors, etc. with financial assistance even by Banks as said by our Prime Minister on Independence day for better quality of electricity.

Energy Conservation Case Studies 1. Coal : Singareni Callieries company ltd., consumed 13.75kwh / ton excavation of coal in 2008-09, compared to 17.75kg in 2001-02. For residential quarters also employees reduced their consumption monthly from 500 kwh to 182 kwh from 2007 onwards when the electric bill was paid by the employees itself. Rs.250 cr. Electric bill yearly has comedown to Rs. 170 cr., a good saving of Rs. 80 cr. to the company. 2. Western Railways, Mumbai received Rs. 7.24 cr. incentive on the electric bill of Rs. 107 cr. for maintaining excellent power factor in 2006-07. The incentive facility for maintaining excellent power factor is presently available in some states in our country. It is requested to consider the concerned authorities for extending this benefits for remaining states also. 3. Student hostels : When the management used to pay electric bill to the hostel student the bill was Rs. 10 lakhs monthly in one of the colleges in Andhra Pradesh. When it was asked to pay by the students itself, the electric bill has come down to Rs. 5 lakhs monthly. 50% wastage has been reduced in this college. There may be some more Engineering colleges to follow this example to reduce carbon emissions, a burning problem for the world today. 4. Aluminum : 14000-17000 kwh per ton of production presently taken compared to 18000-20000 units earlier. 40% production cost is to be paid for electricity only. US is making at half of this consumption for each ton. 5. Cement : In 1990s 120kwh / each tone of cement used to consume with 876 Kcal / kg Clinkar. Now 82 units / tone of cement is used with 723 Kcal / kg Clinker. (2005) 6.a Soda Ash : 30% of cost production for electricity only. Latest information available is 162 units / tone + 3.6 tons of steam for each tone of soda ash manufacturing. 6b. BSNL arranged certain SMS in Tamil Nadu at the Request of TNEB from 14th to 20th December 08. Energy is life, use it wisely, Save Electricity today for a bright tomorrow. Today’s Electricity wastage is tomorrow’s Power Shortage. Turn of Light and equipment when not in Use. I request the concerned authorities to arrange such type of messages on the eve of Energy conservation week in other states also, for the benefit of Society. I enclosed herewith certain tables on Energy Consumption/conservation for ready reference.

CONCLUSION The Inter Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) observed if the present rate continues, the likelihood of Himalayas disappear by 2035 and perhaps sooner is they very high their keeps warming at the current rate. The Hindu 08-12-2009

Hence we have to observe Energy Conservation. The future is shocking at our door right now make no mistake, the next generation will ask one of two questions, either they will ask.. what were you thinking, why didn’t act? (Former Vice President USA, Nobel Prize awardee 2007, AL.Gore just before taking they award.) There is an African Proverb that says “If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. But we want to far and together. That means we have to conserve electricity, hence apply electricity in a qualitative way.
