OBJECTIVE
• National Mission on Enhanced Energy
Efficiency (NMEEE) is one of the eight
missions which formed India’s National
Action Plan on Climate Change
(NAPCC).
• NAPCC was launched in India to
achieve the commitment ratified by
India in the Kyoto Protocol that
commits countries to contain
greenhouse gases emissions.
• An Act to provide for efficient use of energy and its conservation and for
matters connected therewith or incidental thereto.
• It extends to the whole of India except the state of Jammu and Kashmir.
• It was enacted by Parliament in the Fifty-second Year of the Republic of India
on October 2001.
• The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) came into force from March 2002
onwards.
• This act was further amended in 2010 to include the provisions for energy
saving certificates and revision of penalties.
PAT Scheme
• The key goal of the PAT scheme under National Mission for Energy Efficiency
(NMEEE) is to mandate specific energy efficiency improvements for the most
energy intensive industries.
• The scheme builds on the large variation in energy intensities of different units
in almost every sector.
• With respect to Sec 14(g) of the EC act, the Government has notified targets (in
the form of SEC) for various PAT cycles.
• The energy intensity reduction target mandated for each unit is dependent on its
current efficiency : the reduction target is less for those who are more efficient,
and is higher for the currently less-efficient units.
• Applies to new commercial buildings with a connected load of 100 kW & more
or contract demand of 120 kVA or more.
• Introduces passive design features such as daylight requirements and shading
provisions.
• Introduces provisions of installing Renewable Energy Systems.
• Sets minimum energy efficiency standards for design and construction.
• Encourages energy efficient design or retrofit of buildings.
• Pathway toward Net Zero Energy Buildings.
• New commercial buildings with load demand > 100 kW or 120 kVA
• Additions to existing commercial buildings if connected load demand
of building with additions > 100 kW or 120 kVA
• Alterations to existing commercial buildings if altered part of
building or systems > 100 kW or 120 kVA of load demand

3. Preparation of scheme for implementation of efficient use of energy and its conservation
Every Designated Consumer, within three months of the issue of notification under sub-rule (6) of rule 4
shall submit a scheme to State designated agency with a copy to Bureau, which may include: -
• Action Plan containing inter- alia, a brief description of identified energy saving measures to comply
energy consumption norms and standards by the target year.
• Every designated consumer shall have its first energy audit conducted, by an
accredited energy auditor within 18 months of the notification issued by the
Central Government under clause (i) of section 14 of the Act ( Notification
has been issued on 27th May,2014).
• The interval of time for conduct and completion of subsequent energy audits
shall be three years with effect from the date of submission of the previous
energy audit report by the accredited energy auditor to the management of the
designated consumer.
The Designated consumer in consultation with empaneled accredited energy auditor, shall
put in place transparent, independent and credible Monitoring and Verification (M&V)
for Energy Consumption and Production based on the Bureau of Energy Efficiency
(Manner and Intervals of Time for Conduct of Energy Audit) Regulations, 2010 for
compliance with the Energy Consumption Norms and Standards.
Form 1
Form 1 contains details of Information regarding total energy consumed, production, and specific energy
consumption per unit of production.
Form A
Form A is the Performance Assessment Document (PAD) prepared by the DCs in the assessment year for
monitoring and verification.
Form B
Form B is the certification of verification by EmAEA on completion of M&V study in the assessment year.
Form C
Form C is the certification of cross-verification by EmAEA .
Form D
Form D is the declaration of trading and banking of ESCerts by DC
