India Distributed 15 Million LED – India.
LED bulbs can be highly beneficial for India in terms of saving energy, saving the environment, saving money and a lot more. Beginning with the national capital, the aim was to take the program for LED-based home and street lighting to the entire country. The high cost of LEDs (Rs. 400 to 500) restricts buyers from purchasing these bulbs. So, the idea is to overcome the first cost barrier. And for this, the Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) offers up to 4 LED bulbs (with 3 years warranty) to eligible grid connected domestic consumers at an average cost of Rs. 10 each, with Rs. 10 is added to their electricity bill for the next 12 months. According to the DELP official website, more than 15 million LEDs have been distributed to date.
