Vishakhapatnam : With an objective to make the Indian Industry sector as the World’s most energy efficient through implementation of Perform, Achieve & Trade Scheme and contribute towards the climate change targets of reducing one billion tonnes of carbon emissions by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2070, the Union Ministry Of Power led Bureau of Energy Efficiency(BEE) has asked all the States including Andhra Pradesh to make strong efforts for deepening of PAT by identifying new energy intensive industries and sectors for accelerated adoption of efficient and low-carbon technologies.
The BEE has played influential role to enhance energy efficiency in industrial sector through efficient energy use, energy cost reduction and greenhouse gas emissions reduction through PAT and achieved savings of 24.27 million tonnes of oil equivalent(Mtoe) energy worth of Rs 45,000 Crs in first three cycles of PAT with the investment of Rs 70,000 Crs by industries in PAT across the country with a total emission reduction more than 100 million tonnes of CO2, which is 4% of the country’s emissions as against 1.16 Mtoe savings by 52 Industries (Designated Consumers) of Andhra Pradesh till Cycle-5.
During the Regional Workshop on PAT scheme being organized by Andhra Pradesh State Energy Conservation Mission (APSECM), State Designated Agency of AP in Visakhapatnam on Sunday, the Director of BEE Milind Deore said that the Government of India has made impressive progress in recent years in accelerating Energy efficiency in industrial sectors through its flagship program Perform, Achieve & Trade (PAT) Scheme and many of the sectors covered under the PAT scheme like cement , Refineries etc, are now the world’s most energy-efficient industries.
“I would like to mention that it is an honor for Andhra Pradesh to receive National Energy Conservation Award-2022 from President of India for their best performance in energy efficiency activities. I also appreciate Andhra Pradesh for their efforts in successful implementation of PAT scheme. Thanks to industries and energy department for their effective co-ordination and in fact AP is the best performing state even in PAT scheme.”, BEE director said.
Speaking on this occasion, Chief Executive Officer APSECM, A Chandrasekhara Reddy said that designated consumers(Industries under PAT) were issued 6.01 lakh Energy savings certificates till Cycle-V comprising of industrial units from Cement, Thermal Power plants, Textiles, Iron & Steel, DISCOM, Chlor-Alkali, Pulp and Paper, Refinery and Hotels sector. The designated consumers (DCs)
AP has successfully identified sizable number of around 130 industrial units (Designated Consumers (DCs)) that have potential to become designated consumers from the sectors that have already been under the PAT scheme. The identified industrial units are from Chlor-Alkali, Commercial Buildings (Hotels, Hospitals and airports), and Aluminium, Cement, Steel, spinning and textiles, petrochemicals. Also, another 98 industrial units were newly identified from the sectors of Pharma, Engineering & automobile, ceramics and food & fisheries that have potential to be brought under the PAT scheme now, said CEO SECM.
The CEO thanked BEE for their support to APSECM by providing FICCI as PAT cell to support PAT activities in State of Andhra Pradesh. The establishment of PAT cells aims to provide technical assistance in the form of professional/expert manpower and infrastructure at State Designated Agencies (SDAs) for implementation and enforcement of the activities undertaken by SDAs under the PAT Scheme.
During the workshop, the delegates have discussed important issues such as Finalization of KPIs / performance matrixes /outcome of PAT cells with each SDA, Capacity building of PAT cells, Discussions on the various compliance under Perform, Achieve & Trade Scheme & Energy Conservation Act, Development of history sheets of DCs., Clarification on the administrative/infrastructure related issues and Other challenges/issues in regards to functioning of PAT cell.
Mohan Patil, Asst. Secretary general, FICCI, Girish, Director FICCI, , Representatives from various SDAs, PAT cells from FICCI team have participated in the workshop.
