LED fans tubes from mid January

Ranchi: After the LED bulbs, Jharkhand Bijli Vitaran Nigam Ltd (JBVNL) is all set to distribute energy conserving fans and tubelights among consumers from mid-January, under the Centre's Unnat Jyoti by Affordable LEDs for All (UJALA) scheme. 
 
The UJALA scheme was launched by chief minister Raghubar Das in November 2015 and within a year around 80 lakh 9 watt LED bulbs were distributed by JBVNL among 13 lakh consumers. The successful implementation of the UJALA scheme helped JBVNL bag the National Energy Conservation Award 2016 in December. 
 
"The distribution of 80 lakh LED bulbs will help save 744 million units of electricity annually. Now, we are preparing to distribute LED tubelights and energy conserving fans among consumers so that the energy consumption level reduces further," said managing director of JBVNL, Rahul Purwar.
