Haryana became the first fully electrified State in
November 1970.Generation capacity increased to 4072.30 MW in
2007 from 343 MW in 1967.Sub-Stations have increased to 560 in 2007 from
47 in 1967.Transmission and Distribution lines have
increased to about 195000 KMs in 2007 from
about 1800 KMs in 1967.Connected load has increased to 11693 MW in
2007 from 372 MW in the year 1967.Number of consumers increased to more than 41
lac in 2007 from about 3 lac in 1967.State has the maximum density of Agriculture
tubewells in the country i.e. 10 tubewells per
square Km area and has 475000 tubewells in 2007
compared to 20190 in 1967.About 50% of available power is provided to rural
sector against national average of 26%.Average daily availability of power has increased
to 665 LUs per day in 2007 from about 18 LUs per
day in 1967.Per capita consumption of electricity has
increased to 660 Units in 2007 from 57 Units in
1967.

700 Compact Fluorescent Lamps have been
provided in 98 houses to replace inefficient
incandescent bulbs.
Load has reduced to 50% during peakload

Binola has two distribution transformers for
power supply. After providing CFL, load on one
transformer has reduced from 120 Ampere to 70
Ampere and on the other from 98 Ampere to 48
Ampere.
The incidence of interruption in power supply
due to blowing off of fuses, damage of
transformer, and system contraints has been
reduced.
Voltage profile in all the three phases of both the
transformers is optimal, leading to quality
supply.
After the present load is met, capacity in the two
transformers is now available for new
connections.
CFL use in the households has reduced the
energy bills of the households.

BEE E L RNERGY ABEL FOR EFRIGERATORS
• Refrigerator is likely to be one of the largest single power consumer in your home.Refrigerator efficiency has made enormous strides in the past few years. The most efficientmodels available today are significantly more energy efficient, and still improving. Thetypical refrigerator has a life span of 15 to 20 years. The cost of running over that timeperiod will easily be several times the initial purchase price, so paying somewhat moreinitially for higher efficiency offers a solid payback.

When you buy a new refrigerator, buy the most efficient model available. A listing ofenergy efficient appliances can be found at the Bureau of Energy Efficiency's website -
&
Smaller models will obviously use less energy than larger models. Generally, the largerthe refrigerator, the greater the energy consumption. Don't buy a refrigerator that's larger than you need. But onelarge refrigerator will use less energy than two smaller ones with the same total volume.
Models with top- or bottom-mounted freezers average 12% less energy use than side-by-side designs.
Features like through-the-door ice, chilled water, or automatic ice-makers increase the energy consumption,purchase price and also greatly increase energy use and are far more likely to need service and repair.Avoid thesecostly, troublesome options.
Be willing to pay a bit more initially for lower operating costs. A five-star refrigerator that costs more initially, but costs less per year tooperate due to better construction and insulation, will pay for itself in less than four years compared to a two-star refrigerator.
Recycle older or second refrigerators. Don't keep the old, inefficient refrigerator running in the occasional refreshments. It could costyou significantly more per year in electricity.

Maintenance
• Position your refrigerator away from a heat source such as an oven, a dishwasher, or direct sunlight from a window.• Leave at least 30 centimeters all around the refrigerator (or as recommended by the manufacturer) to allow air to circulate around the
refrigerator (condenser coils), and heat to escape from the compressor and condensing coil. If the heat can't escape, the refrigerator'scooling system will work harder and use more energy.
• Make sure the door seals are airtight. Check your refrigerator's door seal by closing the door on a clean piece of paper. If it's held tightlyin place, the seal's OK; if not, the door should be adjusted or the seal replaced. On fridges with magnetic seals, put a flashlight inside thefridge some evening, turn off the room lights, and check for light leaking through the seal. Replace the gasket if damaged.
• Allow hot foods to cool before putting them in the refrigerator.• Cover liquids and wrap foods stored in the fridge. Uncovered foods release moisture (and get dried out), which makes the compressor
work harder.• Don't set your refrigerator's temperature too low. The colder it gets the more it costs to run. Set the temperature for only as cold as you
need; check manufacturer's recommendations.• Don't overfill the refrigerator, as this blocks air circulation. Conversely, a full freezer will perform better than an empty one.• Minimize the amount of time the refrigerator door is open.• Open the fridge door as infrequently and briefly as possible to keep the cold air in. The more the door is opened, the more energy your
refrigerator will use.• Know what you're looking for when you open the refrigerator door. Open your fridge with a purpose. Do not spend time and waste
electricity by opening the refrigerator to browse through its contents.• Turn off the automatic ice maker. It's more efficient to make ice in ice trays.
• Clean your refrigerator's coils (back) and air intake grill (below the doors) every 3 months. When dust builds up on refrigerator'scondenser coils, the motor works harder and uses more electricity. With clean coils the waste heat is carried off faster, and the fridgeruns shorter cycles
• Don't let freezers build up more than 6 mm of frost. Defrost regularly to keep freezers working their best. (For Direct Cool Refrigerators)• Clean the door gasket and sealing surface on the fridge.• Check to see if you have a power-saving switch or a summer-winter switch. Many refrigerators have a small heater (yes, a heater!)
inside the walls to prevent condensation build-up on the fridge walls. If yours does, switch it to the power-saving (winter) mode.
