BEE urges States to sustain momentum on energy efficiency

Vijayawada: The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), under the Ministry of Power, expressed satisfaction over the active participation of all State Designated Agencies (SDAs) particularly the proactive Southern SDAs in the recent World Environment Day celebrations. BEE urged the SDAs to sustain this momentum by intensifying efforts to promote Behavior-Based Energy Saving Practices (2BESP), which are crucial in combating climate change and reducing electricity consumption. According to recent estimates, 2 BESP initiatives can potentially save up to 22.5 billion kWh of energy annually. BEE emphasized the need for targeted awareness and implementation campaigns at the State-level. During an interactive session on the impact of 5-Star Rated Appliances, senior BEE officials including Deputy Director General Dr Asok Kumar, Secretary Milind Deore and Directors Abhishek Sharma and Karman Sheik highlighted the importance of adopting high-efficiency appliances such as air-conditioners, refrigerators and ceiling fans to significantly reduce both electricity usage and consumer bills. The officials also encouraged SDAs to collaborate with Residential Welfare Associations (RWAs) and Group Housing Societies to spread awareness about maintaining air-conditioner temperatures at 24°C or higher, in line with the Government of India's national energy efficiency campaign for both commercial and residential buildings. India's building sector currently accounts for 35–40 per cent of the country's total energy consumption. Against this backdrop, BEE reiterated that urgent adoption of energy efficiency measures by SDAs is critical to reducing energy demand, lowering costs and safeguarding the environment. The benefits of adopting energy-efficient appliances: A conventional 75W ceiling fan, used for 16 hours daily, consumes 1.2 kWh per day, resulting in an annual electricity bill of Rs 2,857 (at Rs 6.50/kWh). In contrast, a 32W Brushless DC (BLDC) fan, under similar usage, consumes only 0.51 kWh per day, lowering the annual bill to Rs 1,208—less than half the cost. Several states in the country - Andhra Pradesh (APSECM), Kerala (EMC), Karnataka (KREDL), Telangana (TSREDCO), and Tamil Nadu (TANGEDCO - in South have emerged as frontrunners in advancing BEE's mission. Their robust participation in the Standards & Labelling Programme helped achieve notable outcomes in 2022–23, including: Saving of 81.64 billion Units of electricity and in terms of money Rs 54,323 crore in energy cost savings. The BEE reaffirmed its commitment to fostering a culture of energy efficiency across India and urged all SDAs to continue driving this transformative shift toward a more sustainable energy future.

KNRC Contract firm blames slushy soil for NH collapse

KOCHI: KNR Constructions (KNRC) said the company has made no 'mistake' in the construction of NH 66 and attributed the collapse of the highway stretch at Kooriyad in Malappuram to unexpected subsoil conditions. According to KNRC, the company responsible for the Ramanattukara-Valanchery section of NH 66, the approach ramp with a reinforced earth (RE) wall yielded due to 'pockets of soft or slushy soil between the earth's layers' beneath the foundation. The Hyderabad-based listed company, in its latest earnings call, stated that the construction process followed proper protocols. 'We are very confident that we have not done any mistake... It's a completely waterlogged area... Proper approvals were taken, and thorough examination of the foundations were done during earthing, along with subsoil investigations,' K Jalandhar Reddy, promoter and executive director of KNRC, said in the call. Responding to analysts' questions, Reddy explained that the designs were made accordingly, and Strata Geosystems, a renowned RE Walls agency, had done the work. 'The design was verified and approved by the authorities concerned before execution. So, as such, we didn't see anything that would have indicated this issue. We treat this as an accident only,' he said. He said the company has put forth a proposal to NHAI to construct a viaduct in the damaged area —estimated to cost Rs 25-Rs 30 crore — to permanently resolve the issue. Reddy said this solution would prevent similar problems in the future given the road's 15-year maintenance requirement.
