Abstract: Energy audits play a pivotal role in reshaping the fortunes of any organization. In India, the conservation and efficient utilization of energy have long been a priority for the government. Mandated by the Energy Conservation Act of 2001, energy audits are now obligatory for all commercial firms in the country. This has spurred a heightened focus on energy conservation among industrial consumers, driven by the realization that saving energy equates to generating it, all while maintaining cost-effectiveness.
This paper delves into the firsthand experiences of an energy conservation project undertaken within the manufacturing sector of Maharashtra state. Despite budget constraints, the project diligently pursued economically viable and efficient measures for energy conservation. The tangible outcomes of these efforts were evident in the subsequent reduction of energy costs, coupled with the added benefit of promoting environmental safety. By sharing these experiences, the paper aims to offer insights into practical approaches for achieving energy efficiency, thus inspiring similar initiatives in other organizations.
