I urge you all to use LED bulbs, save money, save energy and take part in helping our nation.
- Shri Narendra Modi, Hon ble Prime Minister
On 5th January 2015, Hon ble Prime Minister, Shri
Narendra Modi launched the National Programme for Energy Efficient
Appliances. This opened doors for boosting the entire market and worked
in tandem with the larger aim of cutting emissions significantly.
With technology ushering future-ready solutions,
India stands at a precipice where several regions still have minimal
access to electricity, the demand for which is witnessing an uptick. The
downside though, remains that emissions also rise simultaneously with
the demand. In this market scenario, we need simple, affordable and
scalable solutions that help customers save more, while cutting down
energy needs and emissions. EESL was formed predominantly to address
these issues of increasing the adoption for energy efficient products
across public, private and residential facilities nationally
With a target to distribute 770 million LEDs by March 2019 across 100 cities, the Unnat Jyoti by Affordable LEDs for All (UJALA) was
launched in 2015 to become the largest LED distribution program in the
world. The program aims to rectify India s high cost of electrification
and the increased emissions from inefficient lighting, amidst the
backdrop of electricity demand witnessing a 5-fold increase over the
coming years.
Under the scheme, we also distribute 20W LED tube
lights and BEE 5-star rated energy efficient fans to the consumers. We
are distributing 20W LED tube lights that are 50% more energy efficient
than conventional 40W tube lights and are available for Rs. 220/- per
tube, as against the market price of Rs. 400-600. We have also
revolutionized the fan market in India by providing energy efficient
fans under the UJALA scheme that come with a BEE 5 Star rating. These
ceiling fans are rated 30% more energy efficient than conventional fans
and are priced at Rs. 1200/- per fan.
