NEW DELHI: Delhi government will undertake an energy audit of all its buildings having a sanctioned load of 500kW and above as well as streetlights by certified auditors from Bureau of Energy Efficiency, power minister Atishi said on Friday.
The audit will pinpoint areas of excessive power usage in these buildings and devise strategies to manage and control it, she added.
“The energy audits of government buildings will not only suggest ways to minimise energy consumption but will also alleviate the financial burden on the exchequer. The energy-saving measures derived from the exercise will also help stabilise Delhi’s overall power demand,” the minister said.
