Brief description about the DEEP project
The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) aims to implement innovative energy efficiency technologies and deploy large-scale implementation of energy efficiency measures in the PAT industries. Together with Energy Efficiency Services Limited, BEE plans to bolster PAT industries by creating an ecosystem that will not only provide support in meeting their allocated Specific Energy Consumption (SEC) reduction targets under the PAT scheme but also support market transformation for innovative technologies and bring substantial investment in this endeavor.
Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) has vast experience in the implementation of large-scale energy-efficient projects through innovative financial models and demand aggregation. BEE and EESL, with their collaborative approach and expertise, have designed this project to implement innovative technologies and deploy a bespoke package of energy efficiency technologies in PAT industries.
Under the first phase of the DEEP project, EESL will demonstrate nine innovative technologies in about 27 Designated Consumers (DCs), which have not been commercialized on a large scale and have the potential for energy efficiency improvement. Subsequently, EESL shall aggregate the demand for energy-efficient technologies with the objective to reach out to the maximum number of Designated Consumers.
This will enable large-scale deployment of energy-efficient technologies and usher in market transformation. The project also aims to create a self-sustaining mechanism for the upscaling of energy-efficient technologies in the PAT sector.
About EESL
Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL), a joint venture of four Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) of Ministry of Power (MoP), Government of India, was established in 2009 as the implementation arm of MoP and Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Govt. of India. The four central PSU promoters of EESL are National Thermal Power Corporation Limited (NTPC), Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (PGCIL), Power Finance Corporation Limited (PFC) and Rural Electrification Corporation (REC). The objective of the EESL is to lead the market transformation initiatives of the Government of India under the National Mission for Enhanced Energy Efficiency (NMEEE) as well as to create and sustain markets for energy efficiency.
Since its inception in 2009, EESL has been spearheading the implementation of various large-scale energy efficiency programs in the country in domestic, municipal, agriculture, building, and industrial sectors.

About BEE
The Government of India set up Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE). on 1st March 2002 under the provisions of the Energy Conservation Act, 2001. The mission of the Bureau of Energy Efficiency is to assist in developing policies and strategies with a thrust on self-regulation and market principles within the overall framework of the Energy Conservation Act, 2001, with the primary objective of reducing the energy intensity of the Indian economy.
BEE coordinates with designated consumers, designated agencies, and other organizations to recognize, identify, and utilize the existing resources and infrastructure in performing the functions assigned to it under the Energy Conservation Act. The Energy Conservation Act provides for regulatory and promotional functions.
