DELP Dashboard for Monitoring LED Distribution Programme inaugurated
Government Stands Committed to make LED
a Way of Life in India : Shri Piyush Goyal
Shri Piyush
Goyal, Union Minister of State (IC) for Power, Coal, and New & Renewable
Energy said that the Government is committed to make LED lights a way of
life in India. While addressing a conference on ‘Business of Lighting’ here
today Shri Goyal said that the aim of the government is to completely replace
all incandescent bulbs in the country with LED lights in next three years. This
will provide huge business opportunity to the lighting industry. Shri Goyal
hopes that in next 3 years India can rapidly expand LED market.................................
Urging the whole lighting fraternity to correct the market pricing of LED, Shri
Goyal said that it cannot be anomalous situation where government procure LED
bulb at Rs 72/ unit and market continues to price itself very high. The
gap still looks unreasonably huge. Correcting this gap will help them to
increase the production in terms of volumes, Shri Goyal added. He further said
that Government is facilitating industry to mature and reach to every home by
promoting the LED programme in the country. He further said that Government is
capable of providing LED bulbs to every household at lower rates but it will
remove the competitive edge from the industry. At the end of the day market
forces have to take over, Shri Goyal added..........................................
On the question of ensuring availability of quality LED products , Shri
Goyal appealed the lighting fraternity to become whistle blower for bad quality
products coming into Indian market. He urged them to help set quality standards
for imported products in the country. He emphasised that eventually it is the
self regulation within the industry that will protect the nation from spurious
products otherwise incentive of replacing incandescent bulbs will be lost. Shri
Goyal said that there is scope for more innovation in the products related to
LED. He stated that government is willing to support research and development
for bringing innovation in this industry. Solar LED street lights are the
future of this industry and it can provide unimaginable business opportunities
in remote areas of the country. He wished Indian industry to not just assemble
but also starts manufacturing the LED lightings..........................................
On the occasion, Shri Goyal also launched National
DELP Dashboard for continuous monitoring of LED distribution under 100 City
Domestic Efficient Lighting Programme ( DELP) managed by Energy Efficiency
Services Limited........................................................
National DELP Dashboard : - An Overview
National DELP Dashboard is an integrated, real-time,
and web-based dashboard which dynamically refreshes at an interval of 15-sec to
display in real-time, number of LEDs distributed at national level. This is
achieved by aggregating real-time feeds from multiple states where DELP is
ongoing..............................
National Dashboard
also offers a DELP state view – allowing the user to view
state wise DELP numbers on India’s map, thus presenting at an interval of 15
sec the number of LEDs distributed at individual state level. Only the states
where DELP is ongoing appear highlighted.......................................................
This real-time
continuous monitoring is achieved by ensuring real-time electronic recording of
each LED transaction executed at each DELP kiosk, a booth to facilitate
distribution of LEDs, placed across the city. The kiosk level data is
consolidated at city level, which in-turn is consolidated at state-level. The
State level numbers aggregate to form the National DELP number displayed
through a centralized web-based system.................................................................
