Minister R K Singh unveils EESL's dual initiatives

Union Power Minister R K Singh would be launching two energy-saving initiatives, namely the National Efficient Cooking Programme (NECP) and the Energy Efficient Fans Programme (EEFP). The official stated that the minister had recently launched the star labelling program for solar panels, which aimed to inform consumers about the efficiency of their solar projects. Now, on November 2, he was set to launch two more initiatives, NECP and EEFP.

The NECP, initiated by EESL, aimed to promote energy-efficient cooking methods. EESL's induction-based cookstoves provided a cost advantage of 25-30 per cent compared to traditional cooking methods, helping in saving both cost and energy.

EEFP, another program by EESL, focused on promoting energy-efficient cooling solutions. The deployment of energy-efficient BLDC fans led to a reduction in energy consumption and minimised environmental impact.
