1. EE Performance Indicators and

Benchmarks

Benchmarkingis comparing one's business processes

and performance metrics to industry bests and best
practices from other companies.
Objective is to facilitate EE implementation by SMEs
themselves

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs); important parameters to

monitor
Benchmarking EE performance (National and International);
Potential for EE improvement
Applicable EE Technologies and Best Industrial practices;
means to realize the potential

Targeting 3 Sectors: Paper, Ceramic and Forging?

Procurement Process: 3 separate contracts following
QCBS/ CQS method

2. Marketing, Awareness & Outreach

Activities

3. Promoting Use of EE equipments

-Demand Aggregation

Objective is to promote use of Energy Efficient

equipments
Targeting LT electrical motors 5-20 HP in SMEs
situated in Delhi NCR area
Why Motors: Widely used, mostly nonstandarized, poorly maintained
Project Contribution: Removing barriers such
as cost and availability; establishing benefits
Distribution of 10,000 IE3 motors ranging from 520 HP resulting into .

Proposed Model- Demand Aggregation

(Energy Efficient/ IE3)

Cost of new energy efficient IE3 motor for MSMEs = MRP (Discount offered by manufacturer +
Salvage value of old motor)
Salvage value of old motors can be fixed per KW/HP irrespective of its age and model
Activity cost borne by ESCO will be provided by the BEE-GEF-WB project

4. Technical Assistance to Energy

professionals
A. Hand-on training programmes at Centre of Excellence
for Training on Energy Efficiency (CETEE), Chennai

sector specific training programmes of 2-3 days duration;

around 20 participants per programme
Training of 200 professionals (10-12 training programmes)
Residential programmes, travel cost to be borne by
participant
Procurement process: SSS to AIP, Chennai

B.On job training programmes for Shop floor employees

To share Best Industrial Practices

Nos. and training areas will be decided based on
requirements during the project implementation

5. Energy Management
System

Objective is to make energy efficiency part of main

business stream of SMEs

Structured and systematic approach towards lowering energy

intensity
To sustain the initiatives taken in this or other similar projects

Follows the same architecture as for Quality and

Environment widely followed in SMEs, therefore, easy to
implement
Target is to assist 40 units (3-4 units from all project
cluster) to implement EnMS as per ISO-50001 and use
them as demonstration cases
The cost of technical assistance is to be borne by the
project
Procurement Process: QCBS method

6. Web Portal & Helpline

Procurement Process: SSS method

Strengthening the existing knowledge base and

making it available to more and more stakeholders
Promotion of web portal and helpline via online media,
SMS campaigns and relevant events
Liasoning with other GEF EE projects to provide
updates to be uploaded
Proposal for a mobile site for better outreach
