Abstract
Energy efficiency penetration in the Indian market is driven by the policies and schemes implemented by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Energy Efficiency Services Ltd. (EESL), and various state governments. This paper aims to introduce a rebate-based incentive program for achieving energy efficiency in India. This paper also delves into the current demand-side management activities in India. The different steps involved in the evaluation of rebate-based energy efficiency programs have been presented in this paper. A case study has been provided to estimate the amount of energy savings and the avoided CO2 emissions that could be achieved by the implementation of rebate-based energy efficiency programs for the states of Maharashtra, Gujrat, and Tamil Nadu. It is estimated that the proposed energy efficiency programs could achieve 5,346 million units of electric savings and 3.8 million tons of avoided CO2 emissions across the three states.
