Introduction
India is facing significant growth in electricity demand and could
benefit greatly by using energy efficient lighting systems. The need
of the hour for the country is secured, affordable and
environmentally sustainable energy to meet the ambitious National
Programme of Power to all by 2012.
Lighting is the most visible form of electricity consumption and
lighting load in our country is very high about 17-18% of total load.
By increasing the efficiency of lighting system, there can be
significant energy saving and reduction in peak load. There is a
scope for reducing about 30 to 35 % of the morning and evening
peak demand.
Demerits of Conventionally
filament lamps are as follows:
High energy consumption (15
watt/lamp).
Failure of lamps is high
(operating life less than 1,000
hours).
Very sensitive to the voltage
fluctuations.

Use of LED lamps for indicating lamps will reduce the energy
consumption.
Contd
Use of photo sensor switch for street light controlling helps in conserving
the lighting energy.
At street lights, in many places, the reflectors inside the HPSV fitting are
damaged, it is suggested to replace the fittings with anodised aluminium
reflectors. This will improve the lighting level by 20-25%.

What is LED?
LED is a light emitting semiconductor diode that emits
light in forward direction or in the direction it is pointed
towards.
LEDs are most often used in the form of an indicator light
in electronic devices, traffic signal lights, musical
instruments and dashboards in cars and in houses, etc.
The color of the light produced by LED depends on the
composition of the semiconductor material used out of
which producing a blue color light is the most difficult
process.
The nature of the light emitted can be visible, infrared or
ultraviolet.

Energy Snippets
In Energy Snippets, the various upcoming Projects of Solar Power Plants in
West Bengal Raj Bhawan, Solar Hub in Andhra Pradesh, replacement of
incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent lamps by the Dakshin Haryana
Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN), Haryana and also implemented scheme in Indian
Railways under Energy Conservation and Clean Development Mechanism
(CDM) through Renewable Energy Resources have been highlighted .
A. CFLs on the bright track in Indian Railways :It plans to replace the
incandescent bulbs with Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) in all its
residential quarters, production units and workshop across the country and
It will be registered under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM).
B. Mandatory for Haryana Industries :The Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran
Nigam (DHBVN) has made it mandatory for all the industrial units (both high
tension and low tension) and their residential colonies, hospitals, street
lighting, to replace the conventional bulbs with the energy efficient CFLs and
T-5 tube lights or induction bulbs.
