Energy efficiency targets for core sector units fixed [1]

New Delhi Industrial units of the core sectors, like steel and fertiliser, may have to pay a penalty of R10,154 for every tonne of oil equivalent energy shortfall, if they fail to meet the new energy efficiency targets set by the government.

The 478 most energy-intensive industrial plants, which account for about one-third of the total energy consumed in India, will have to reduce their power consumption use to 6.6 million tonne (mt) of oil equivalent energy by 2014-15 as per the New Energy Conservation Rules.
