Abstract

The Delhi Government has decided to use energy-efficient cooling devices in all its offices and buildings. The move comes as a step to save energy and curb the rising demand of electricity. Once approved, all departments of the Delhi Government will use only 5-star rated air conditioners and other cooling devices. The starrating of electrical devices is an ecolabel that makes green initiatives like these possible. The star-rating of electrical devices was introduced under the Energy Conservation Act, 2001, through the setting up of a Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE).
