Chief Secretary Minnie Mathew has directed the government departments to adopt energy conservation and energy efficiency measures to reduce power consumption.
Ms. Mathew, who chaired the meeting of the State Energy Conservation Mission which she heads, wanted the departments to emulate the Vidyut Soudha, the headquarters of APTransco, in this regard. Putting in place conservation measures, Vidyut Soudha achieved saving of 192 units a day.
The meeting resolved to ask the employees of power sector to take the responsibility of creating awareness among consumers about the energy conservation measures. The APTransco and CPDCL are expected to submit a report to the Energy Department and the SECM shortly in methods that should be adopted for energy savings, according to a press release.
