Under UJALA scheme, the main objective is to promote efficient lighting, enhance awareness on using efficient equipment which reduces electricity bills and helps preserve the environment. Efficient light bulbs, like LEDs, consume only one-tenth of the energy used by ordinary bulbs to provide the same or better light output. So, we ask you to suggest ways for promoting the use of LEDs on this open discussion forum.

I appreciate the initiatives from our Government of distributing LEDs with comparatively low cost (i.e.Rs 85/- each) at Electricity office.However, many people are not aware of it. I suggest we can advertise it more. So, it can reach to all. Also, the price is still more compare to a 100 watt bulb available in market. We must have a plan to give it with subsidized price for first 2-3 bulbs. So, everyone can realize the benefit of LEDs compare to traditional bulbs.#LEDs,#EnergyConservation

Respected Sir, Most of Electricity use in urban area, for this I would like to suggest use of prepaid elect. meter made compulsory in urban & town area, if prepaid meter service coming in existence, everyone try to save electricity and automatically prefer LED bulb & use this. I think in this case there is no need to more publicity. In Rural area I insist to made awareness through school and colleges by organizing various prog & provide LED through retailer at discounted rate/through govt shop

Production of LED lights in India is to be encouraged for reducing its initial manufacturing cost, increasing employment and saving environment through financial incentives to research / technology transfer and industrial sector growth.

1. Put pressure on electric bulb manufacturers to produce only LED's, and in parallel give 1 rupee off per unit consumption of electricity if anyone having all LED bulbs in their house. 2. Govt advertisement on all media, TV, radio newspaper to encourage LED lights, even on private news/commertial channels

Every Consumer knows the power efficiency of LEDs but still don't prefer it due to its high initial cost. But giving the Leds at subsidiary rate will make burden at the government. Therefore government should provide the LEDs through EMI to the existing Electricity Consumer with a time period of the EMI equal to the Warranty of the LEDs so that even if the LEDs get dead neither the consumer nor government having loss and the EMI amount should be added to the electricity bill of every month.
