Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

What it means

  • This gazette notification from the Ministry of Power, Government of India, dated August 14, 2024, amends an earlier notification (S.O. 246(E), dated January 17, 2024) related to energy conservation under the Energy Conservation Act, 2001.
  • The amendment primarily involves updating the year '2024' to '2025' in existing tables and adding three new tables (3.1(a), 3.2(b), and 3.3(c)) specifying rated service values for different star levels of energy efficiency for a period from January 1, 2026, to December 31, 2028.

Key Changes

  • All instances of '2024' in the original notification's tables are replaced with '2025'.
  • Three new tables (3.1(a), 3.2(b), and 3.3(c)) are introduced, defining rated service values (cubic meters per minute/watt) for five star levels (1 to 5 stars) for a period from January 1, 2026, to December 31, 2028.
  • These new tables likely pertain to different categories or types of equipment or appliances, given their separate designations (3.1(a), 3.2(b), 3.3(c)). The specific application of each table is not explicitly defined in this notification, requiring reference to the original notification (S.O. 246(E), dated January 17, 2024) for complete understanding.
  • The new tables introduce specific ranges for each star rating. For example, in Table 3.1(a), a 1-star rating requires a value ≥ 2.0 and < 2.5 cubic meters per minute/watt.

Impact Analysis

Impact on Manufacturers

  • Non-compliance could lead to penalties as defined in the Energy Conservation Act, 2001.

Impact on Consumers

  • The new standards might influence the pricing of appliances, depending on the cost of achieving higher star ratings.

Impact on Government

  • The changes aim to promote energy conservation, aligning with national energy policy goals.

Action Items

  • The government should implement a robust enforcement mechanism to ensure compliance.
