70 Energy in action

Energy Conservation

Energy saved reduces costs as well as emissions. At
Apraava Energy, we are constantly attempting to find
ways to reduce energy consumption, thereby reducing
costs as well as GHG emissions.

LED Lighting:
At JPL, LED lighting is being implemented in the plant area
& township in a phased manner (total of four phases).
Presently, Phase 2 has been completed covering Boiler 1
and CHP buildings. Various High Intensity Discharge (HID),
FTL and CFL lights have been replaced with LED lights. This
will result in the following: (i) Estimated energy
conservation of ~408,846 kWh on an annual basis (ii)
Estimated CO reduction of ~335 tonnes annually.

At renewables sites, existing lights of a majority of assets
have already been replaced with LED lighting and the
remaining assets will be replaced by FY 2021-22. JPL has a
target to replace 100% existing lights with energy efficient
LED lighting by FY 2022-23.

The first Electric Vehicle (EV) added into
our car pool fleet

A small but significant step in creating environmental
impact
We, at Apraava Energy, are committed to reducing our
carbon footprint, not just as a business strategy but also
in our daily operations. To further our commitment, we
have decided to gradually replace fossil fuel-driven cars in
our fleet with electrical cars in a phased manner.
To begin with, we have added our first '100% electric car'
to our Mumbai office fleet and second one at Jhajjar
location during FY 2020-21. Electric car at Mumbai office is
now being used as an office pool car and the one at
Jhajjar plant is used as passenger vehicle. This initiative
contributes to the reduction of vehicular CO emissions

and also abating pollution of air and noise.
