AC ke temperature ko lekar naya niyam!
Ghar aur office mein AC chalane walon, dhyaan do! Sarkar ek naya niyam laane ki planning kar rahi hai, jisse aap apne AC ko 20°C se kam temperature par nahi set kar paoge. Ye naya rule sirf gharon mein nahi, balki hotels, commercial jagahon aur vehicles mein bhi lagu hoga. Iska maqsad hai bijli ki consumption kam karna aur energy bachana. Chaliye, jante hain is naye niyam ke bare mein detail mein.
Manohar Lal Khattar ne kya kaha?
Delhi mein ek event mein Union Power Minister Manohar Lal Khattar ne kaha ki AC ke temperature settings ko lekar ek naya provision final kiya ja raha hai. Is initiative ke tahat, ACs ko sirf 20°C se 28°C ke range mein hi operate karne ke liye program kiya jayega. Sarkar ka kehna hai ki isse energy efficiency mein sudhar hoga.
Naye guidelines se kya ummeed karein?
Naye niyam ke mutabik, air conditioners ka temperature ek fix range mein rahega, chahe wo residential ho ya commercial. Abhi, users 16°C ya 18°C tak temperature set kar lete hain, aur heating options mein 30°C tak jaate hain. Lekin naye rule ke baad, manufacturers ko apne devices ko re-program karna hoga ya software updates issue karne honge, jisse 20°C se 28°C ka range enforce ho sake.
Sarkar AC temperature ko cap kyun karna chahti hai?
Khattar ji ne bataya ki iska main objective India ki badhti bijli ki demand ko manage karna hai. Garmiyon mein AC ka widespread use hone se power grid par bahut pressure padta hai. Power ministry ke top bureaucrat, Pankaj Agarwal ne kaha ki ACs already 50 gigawatts contribute karte hain, jo ki desh ke maximum power load ka ek fifth hai. Bloomberg ki report ke according, unhone ye bhi kaha ki studies mein pata chala hai ki har 1°C temperature badhane se power consumption mein 6% ki kami aati hai. Agar temperature ko 20°C tak badhaya jaaye to peak demand mein kareeb teen gigawatts ki bachat ho sakti hai.
Long-term impact kya hoga?
University of California, Berkeley ki ek study ke according, cooling ke liye energy efficiency standards ko tight karne se India 2035 tak peak electricity demand mein 60 gigawatts tak bacha sakta hai. 2024 ki summer mein India ki maximum electricity demand 250 gigawatts tak pahunch gayi thi, aur is saal ismein 8% ka aur izafa hone ki ummeed hai. May mein baarish ki wajah se load kam hua tha, lekin June mein heat waves ne phir se consumption badha diya hai. National grid controller ne bataya ki Monday, June 9 ko maximum demand kareeb 241 gigawatts thi, jo ki is saal ab tak ki sabse zyada hai.
