The Haryana Government has launched the first of its kind ‘Demand Side Management-AC Scheme’ in the State for the domestic consumers of urban and rural areas to promote energy savings.
“Under this scheme, 1.05 lakh ACs will be made available at a discount of up to 59 per cent of the minimum retail price (MRP) to the people of the State. Those interested will have to apply by August 24, 2021,” Power Minister Ranjit Singh said.
He said the Power Department has tied up with three well-known companies including Deccan, Blue Star and Voltas, which will provide electricity cost saving split ACs of 1.5 ton capacity at low cost on demand of the people. Under this, domestic consumers can buy an AC in exchange for their old one.
