Monitoring of Energy consumption

• Daily monitoring of Energy consumption by Energy management group.

• Energy conservation week is observed every year in the month of December.

• Activities during the week :-Display of banners & posters in HQ office, Divisional offices & in workshops at prominent places and locations.Awareness programme by showing message on Home page of website.Message on telephone.Seminar on Energy conservation in divisional offices & workshops.Essay, Slogan writing & drawing competition on Energy conservation at HQ and divisional level.Releasing of souvenir on Energy Conservation.Organizing workshop on Energy conservation at major stations, colonies, hospitals by Electrical supervisors.

• Distribution of GMs appeal.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT POLICY & SETUP

• Adopt Cleaner and Eco - friendly Renewable Energy (RE) sources on Railways.

• Striving to reduce specific energy consumption (SEC) by continuously taking energy efficiency improvement measures & minimizing energy wastages.

• To carry out internal and external Energy Audits on regular basis to identify areas for improvement.

• Involvement of employees at all levels in the energy conservation efforts.

• Extensive use of 3 star () & above labeled electrical products/equipments.
