| Governor decides to launch Smart LED Lighting Programme from next month | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 27: Governor N N Vohra chaired a high-level meeting regarding implementation of "Domestic Efficient Lighting Programme (DELP)" aimed at energy saving by using efficient LED lamps.
The Governor was informed that distribution of 80 lakh LED bulbs to about 15 lakh registered consumers in the state will save energy consumption by 260 m KWh translating into an annual saving of about Rs 130 crore, an official spokesman said.
The Governor directed the Chief Secretary to take necessary steps so that the DELP can be launched across the state from March this year in collaboration with Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL), a PSU under the Ministry of Power.
The government, through EESL, may provide up to 5 LED lamps of 9W each to every registered electricity consumer at an affordable price, the spokesman said.
If any consumer wants more than 5 LEDs, he can purchase the additional number at a cost of about Rs 100 which would be much less than the price in the open market.
It was also decided in the meeting that street lights in the Municipal Corporations of Jammu and Srinagar and other municipalities across the state, would be replaced with energy-efficient smart LED lights with full metering and dedicated feeders/phase wires.
