CFL scheme finally ready to take off, firms line up [1]

Three months after Chief Minister Prem Kumar Dhumal mooted the Rs 80-crore energy saving Atal Bijli Bachat Yojana, envisaging free distribution of CFLs, Himachal Pradesh State Electricity Board is finally ready to introduce the scheme. Yesterday, HPSEB top officials finalised the tender documents to start bulk purchase of compact fluorescent lamps directly from the manufacturing firms. At least eight leading CFL manufacturers have already shown interest to supply lamps as per specifications of the state government.
