N Chandrababu Naidu, Chief Minister, Andhra Pradesh, has appealed the people to actively participate in the Government’s energy conservation mission.

The government has planned to launch several projects including supply of energy efficiency fans and pump sets in collaboration with the InternationalAP Genco Krishnapatnam in Vijayawada.

The state that had shortage of power is now able to generate surplus power out of which it can sell 10,472 mega unit of power to other states, yearly, resulting in an income of Rs 4,492 crore.

The state is also looking forward to become an ‘Incandescent Free Bulb State’ by March 2017 by replacing existing bulbs with LED ones, under energy efficiency programs.

In order to promote energy efficiency initiatives, the Centre is in a plan to invest Rs 1000 crore every year for the next 5 years. In the field of agriculture, around Rs 5,000 crore investments are planned for implementing Demand Side Management (DSM) measures in a phased manner with the support of Energy Efficiency Services Limited.
