The study provides information on the energy usage of the installations and provides estimates of energy savings that can be realized from undertaking energy efficiency implementations. The study also indicates the investment needs, payback periods etc. to give some indication on the attractiveness of the investment proposal. IGEA of Govt. Buildings As a part of Energy Conservation action plan, energy audit of 20 Govt. buildings including the prestigious Orissa Legislative Assembly, State Secretariat, Raj Bhawan, Soochana Bhavan, etc. has been completed. Study resulted in the audit of more than 14 MVA contract demand and more than 11 MW of connected load. An energy saving potential of more than 2 MW has been explored. Orissa is the first State to have undertaken implementation of the IGEA recommendations by providing adequate financial support from the State Budget. Fund has already been placed with General Electrical Division, Works Department, Govt. of Orissa for implementation of recommendations in these buildings. Implementations have already been completed in seven buildings and under progress in other Govt. buildings. Implementation scheduled for completion within the current financial year. IGEA of Dairy Plant To promote energy conservation in the dairy sector, energy audit of Bhubaneswar Dairy plant, OMFED, a state level cooperative society, has been completed. An annual energy saving potential of 4,13,977 units and 2,80,696 ltrs of furnace oil contributing towards an annual saving potential of more than Rupees 1.2 crores (more than 25% energy savings with attractive payback period) projected by the study. OMFED has been advised to implement the recommendations so as to realize the energy saving potential.
