 Section 13 – Powers and functions of the BEE
 Section 14 – Power of Central Government to Facilitate and Enforce Efficient use of Energy
and its Conservation
 Section 15 -Power of State Government to Facilitate and Enforce Efficient use of Energy and
its Conservation
 Section 16 – Constitution of State Energy Conservation Fund
 Section 17 – Power of Inspection
 Section 18 – Power of Central Government to issue directions
 Section 26 – Penalties and Adjudication

2.2 Functions of BEE
The mission of Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) is to develop policy and strategies with a
thrust on self-regulation and market principles, within the overall framework of the Energy
Conservation Act (EC Act), 2001 with the primary objective of reducing energy intensity of the
Indian economy. This will be achieved with active participation of all stakeholders, resulting in
accelerated and sustained adoption of energy efficiency in all sectors.
The setting up of Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) provides a legal framework for energy
Page 5

Complex Building, New Delhi
efficiency initiatives in the country. The Act empowers the Central Government and in some
instances the State Governments to:

Notify energy intensive industries, other establishments, and commercial buildings as
designated consumers.

Establish and prescribe energy consumption norms and standards for designated
consumers.

Direct designated consumers to designate or appoint certified energy manager in charge of
activities for efficient use of energy and its conservation.

Get an energy audit conducted by an accredited energy auditor in the specified manner and
intervals of time.

Furnish information with regard to energy consumed and action taken on the
recommendation of the accredited energy auditor to the designated agency.

Comply with energy consumption norms and standards, and if not so, to prepare and
implement schemes for efficient use of energy and its conservation.

Prescribe energy conservation building codes for efficient use of energy and its
conservation in commercial buildings State Governments to amend the energy
conservation building codes to suit regional and local climatic conditions.

Direct owners or occupiers of commercial buildings to comply with the provisions of
energy conservation building codes.

Direct mandatory display of label on notified equipment and appliances.

Specify energy consumption standards for notified equipment and appliance.
2.3 PRESENT STATUS
Overview
There is a huge potential of energy savings in existing buildings. Energy Audit studies conducted
in several office buildings, hotels and hospitals indicate energy saving potential of 23% to 46%
in end uses such as lighting, cooling ventilation, refrigeration etc. Energy efficiency measures
bring about energy savings due to reduced energy consumptions. Energy savings are determined
by comparing energy baseline with energy consumed after implementation of EE measures.
Energy cost savings resulting from EE measures directly benefit building owners and occupants
over the life cycle of the building.
ESCO is an organization engaged in a performance-based contract with a client firm to
implement measures, which reduce energy consumption and costs in a technically and
financially viable manner. There are various models of ESCO in energy efficiency business for
example, (a) ESCO may only provide energy audit and consultancy for implementation of
energy efficiency measures, (b) ESCO may provide energy audit and operation and maintenance
of retrofitted equipment with performance guarantee and (c) ESCO may provide audit, finance
and implement the measures under performance contract with shared savings.

Complex Building, New Delhi
In order to promote implementation of energy efficiency measures in the existing buildings, the
Government of India has approved a scheme to provide assistance for preparation of Investment
Grade Energy Audits (IGEA) for government buildings at central as well as state level. In
addition, the State Designated Agencies (SDAs) /other Government agencies are being
encouraged to take up implementation of energy efficiency measures in their government
buildings.
The approved scheme provides funding of IGEA for buildings being arranged by the
SDAs/Other Government agency. It is therefore, necessary, to co-ordinate with the Central and
State Governments/ Agencies for taking up energy efficiency improvements in their existing
buildings/facilities.
