Bureau of Energy Efficiency says even raising AC temperature by 1℃ can reduce power consumption by 6%. Any increase could therefore reflect in reduced electricity bills.
However, industry officials and energy experts ThePrint spoke to say they believe that this change in regulation will be good for long-term energy efficiency, while also reducing the electricity bills of consumers.
Instead of regulating temperature control of AC they should better regulate industries that are actually making our country hotter and forcing us to buy AC in the first place. Introduce more green energy sources, mordenize the electric grid, educate farmers to adopt greener agricultural practices. That’s how you increase long term energy efficiency.
Who are these idiot experts that The Print talked to?
