Major inferences of RE awareness
• Awareness about RE in rural is lower than urban areas, among women
and uneducated population
• Awareness about RE other than solar and wind is less
• Awareness about cost effectiveness of RE is not substantial
• There is a large gap between awareness and practice of RE sources
• Initial cost and absence of after sale service are the major barriers in
adoption of RE

Major inferences of DSM and EE
• Power cut and voltage fluctuation are major supply problems
• Power supply problem is high in rural areas than in urban area
• Patan and Kachchh has more supply problem
• There is wide gap between awareness and use of EE products
• Not many consumers have fair idea about identification of EE products
• Awareness about star rating is much less in rural consumers
• Not much EE users are highly satisfied by the EE products

rating

• Satisfaction from EE products moderate and less for majority
• Only 14% HH are using RE run electric appliances
• RE technology is not available for high power consuming appliances
• The cost of EE products is high but durability is less, so net saving is
not substantial

Absence of funding and lack of knowledge on the issue are major difficulty for CSOs
to work with Energy issue
49 CSOs are unaware of Regulatory Authority and 68 are unaware that regulator is
mandated to consult CSOs and while fixing electricity tariff
74 CSOs are interested to work with Energy issue provided support
16
Challenges and Opportunities
Challenges
Opportunities
Awareness about RE sources is low among
consumers
Awareness generation may lead to more
penetration of RE and EE practices
Available RE technologies are unable to
attract consumers
The RE technology need to be debated and
disseminated
Initial cost of RE run appliances is high
Financial incentives, service promotion and
technology development issues need to be
Lack of after sale services for RE run taken into policy making platforms
appliances
Industries and other institutional consumers
expect incentives from govt. for RE and EE
Net monetary saving by EE appliances is Consumers need to be educated about benefits
of DSM on power tariff and clean
perceived to be less
environment
Less number of CSOs are working with the Capacity building of CSOs may take the RE
and DSM issues to ground level in a large
energy issues
way
17
Way Forward
• Training workshop will be designed to impart knowledge and information
about DSM and RE issues to CSOs
• Awareness about RE sources, Information about RE and EE technology
and credit facility will be a key input in consumer interface meetings
• Addressing the challenge of converting awareness to practice for RE and
EE will be the part of state level training workshop
• Agriculture consumer will be a key stakeholder for promotion of RE and EE
practices through consumer interface and follow up actions
• Subsidy to consumers and R&D assistance in RE technology will be taken
to policy advocacy meeting
