Exchange bulbs with energy-saving CFLs!

NDPL to give four CFLs in exchange for four working incandescent bulbs  
 
The power distribution company North Delhi Power Limited (NDPL) today said that it will give four compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) in exchange of equal number of working incandescent bulbs.
 
This is expected to result in a reduction of 100 MW in the peak demand for NDPL and energy savings of over 100 million KWH annually.

The company has also signed an agreement with Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) and C-Quest Capital in this regard.

"The initiative is called Bachat Lamp Yojana where all the NDPL consumers can get up to a maximum of four compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) at Rs 15 each in exchange of equal number of working incandescent bulbs," said senior officials of the company.

The entire project is financed by C-Quest Capital as it will earn revenue through sale of carbon credits. NDPL and C-Quest Capital will distribute about 15 lakh CFLs in the NDPL area.
