2 Annual Report 2013-14

Despite the discovery of new sources of unconventional energy, Petroleum would remain a

major primary energy source in India as well as the world despite significant strides in areas

of renewable sources of energy. The global consumption of petroleum has reached over 6965

MMT of oil equivalent (MMTOE ) per year. In India, from a level of 3.5 MMT in 1950-51, it

has reached 160 MMT in 2013-14. This is expected to grow further up to 245 MMT by year

2021-22 keeping pace with our increasing energy requirements.

Governement gives top priority to conservation of petroleum products, in view of the need

to reduce ever increasing gap between demand and indigenous production of crude oil. Each

stakeholder, therefore, has a significant role to play in conservation of petroleum products.

Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas had set up Petroleum Conservation Research Association

(PCRA) in 1978 to promote the conservation and efficient utilization of petroleum products in

all sectors of economy viz; Transport, Industry, Commercial, Domestic and Agriculture in the

country. Since its inception, PCRA is actively working towards promotion of fuel conservation

among masses through its various field activities. It has recently taken pioneering steps in the

field of Star Labeling of equipment based on fuel efficiency norms.

I am sure the content of this Annual Report 2013-14 of PCRA will benefit every section and

target group of our society.

Out of the known Indian reserves of 760 MMT of Crude Oil and 1.3 Trillion Cubic Meters

of Natural Gas, only a part may be technically and economically feasible to exploit. This fact,

coupled with the present and projected consumption implies that these reserves may not last

long. Our present indigenous production of Oil & Gas is only 37.9 MMT and is less than 25% of

our annual requirement. Therefore, to minimizing the gap between indigenous production and

consumption of petroleum products, the need of the hour is to conserve petroleum products

through its judicious use, substituting it by other resources wherever feasible and restricting its

use only to the essential needs.

PCRA is a registered society set up in 1978 under the aegis of Ministry of Petroleum & Natural

Gas. As a non-profit organization, PCRA is engaged in promoting energy conservation and

efficiency in various sectors of economy i.e. Industry, Agriculture, Transport, Domestic and

Commercial in close cooperation with Public Sector Oil & Gas Companies, Government & Non-

Government Organizations, Research Institutes and Laboratories, Educational Institutions,

Consumer Associations and other organizations.

Field Activities are one of the core areas of PCRA operations. Through these activities, PCRA

engineers and experts are able to reach the target groups with innovative energy conservation

programmes. These activities are designed to cover a large spectrum of socio-economic

profile of our country in different sectors viz Industry, Transport, Domestic, Agriculture and

Commercial.

Energy Efficiency Services, Seminars/Technical Meets, Training Programmes, Industrial

Workshops, ISO 50001:2011 Energy Management System and PAT (Perform, Achieve & Trade)

scheme remained the touch point of PCRA with the industry segment. PCRA has also equipped

itself with 6 lead auditors for ISO 50001(Energy Management System), who have provided

the consultancy work of implementation of ISO 50001 to various installations such as BPCL

Mumbai Refinery, Uran LPG plant, CIPLA, IOCL installations, etc.

Transport sector remained major focus area for PCRA as it accounts for around 50% of the

country’s consumption of petroleum products. PCRA has commenced initiative in formulation

of fuel consumption norms for Heavy Vehicles (Trucks and Buses) in India.

PCRA, in association with BEE (Bureau of Energy Efficiency), has undertaken initiative leading

to development of Standards & Labeling Programme for Appliances consuming petroleum

products viz. Domestic LPG Stoves, Diesel Generator sets and Diesel Engine Driven Monoset

Pumps for Agricultural Purposes. The objective of this programme is to achieve fuel savings at

consumer end by using fuel efficient appliances.

PCRA also participated in the bilateral dialogues with Russia, US, Japan for taking up joint

activities in the field of fuel conservation. DFID-UK has also offered assistance in development

of fuel economy norms.

Research & Development is an important activity of PCRA. As a part of its mandate, PCRA

formulates strategies to sponsor new R&D projects that promote measures for accelerating

conservation of petroleum products leading to energy security, environmental protection and

sustainable development in all sectors of economy.

Education campaign is used by PCRA as a communication tool to create mass awareness

on efficient utilization of energy resources using various medium of communication. PCRA

carried out campaign through bulk SMS push, digital media, internet website, TV & Radio

advertisements, Transport Workshops, Nukkad Nataks, Driver Training Programs, Safety

and Conservation Workshops, Cyclothons, Walkathons, Intersection Activities, LPG Clinics,

checking of vehicles at retail outlets during free air / pollution checks, fuel saving tips through

smart phones, etc.

Like previous years, PCRA in association with Oil & Gas PSUs observed Oil & Gas Conservation

Fortnight (OGCF) from 16th -31st January 2014 with a theme “SAVE FUEL, SAVE MONEY,

SAVE ENVIRONMENT”. During OGCF, large number of activities like mass rallies, cycle

rallies, marathons, human chain, technical seminars, symposiums, essays, quiz and painting

competitions, LPG/PNG saving workshops, workshops for industrial workers / drivers etc.

were conducted all over the country by PCRA and Public Sector Oil & Gas Companies for

propagation of Oil & Gas conservation messages amongst the major consuming sectors namely,

Transport, Industry, Agricultural, Household and Commercial.

iii) Standards & Labeling Programme

for Equipments consuming petroleum

products as Fuel :

PCRA has launched an initiative called

Standards and Labeling (S&L) programme

aimed towards developing improved

efficiency standards of consumption of

petroleum products, mainly HSD and LPG in

various applications and get the same notified

through Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE),

Ministry of Power. PCRA has taken up 3

appliances involving Domestic LPG Stoves,

Diesel Pump Sets for Agricultural purposes

and Diesel Engine Driven Generators.

Based on fuel consumption efficiency of

products, Star Labeling (from 1 to 5) is


proposed to be endorsed on energy efficient

products.

This unique initiative of PCRA highlights huge

saving potential of petroleum products for the

nation thus reducing oil import and burden

on foreign exchange outgo. Once the program

is implemented, it has the potential of saving

approx. 2400 TMT of LPG and 26000 TMT

of HSD in diesel engine driven pump sets and

generators in 10 years on a cumulative basis.

This translates into saving of more than approx.

` 1,45,000 crores in ten years.

Standard & Labeling Programme for

Domestic LPG Stoves

LPG in India is predominantly marketed by

Public Sector Oil companies and there are

more than 16 crore customers enrolled as

LPG consumers with these Oil companies.

The consumption of domestic LPG has

steadily increased over the years & indigenous

production has fallen short to meet the demand

resulting in import of LPG.

PCRA identified this as one of the potential

areas, wherein conservation of LPG could be

achieved through use of energy efficient LPG

Stoves in order to reduce the import bill and

the subsidy amount. As a result of labeling

programme, the thermal efficiency of LPG

stove shall be minimum 68%. The estimated

savings in LPG consumption will be 2.4 MMT

in next 10 years on cumulative basis considering

transformation to at least 1 star product.

Ministry of Power accorded approval to

PCRA’s benchmarking proposal in association

with BEE under Energy Conservation Act

2001 in Dec-13, including mention of “In

Association with PCRA” on all labels to be

put up on Star rated products. Scheme is now

operational. BEE has released the schedule

on their portal for registration of domestic

LPG gas stove manufacturers / traders on

voluntary basis.

The following “Label Design” has been

approved:

Roadmap for implementation of Standards

& Labeling programme for Diesel Engine

Driven Monoset for Agricultural purposes

(2-10 HP)

According to Market Survey carried out by

PCRA, India produces 1.5 million pumps

per year with an expected annual growth of

7%. The existing population of diesel driven

pump sets in country is about 14.42 millions.

According to study, nearly 8.55% (5.8 MMT)

of country’s total diesel consumption (68.4

MMT in 2013-14) is being used for irrigation

purposes. The survey also reveals that about

90% of pumps used in farms are of 21 %

efficiency only. This benchmarking initiative

is expected to improve the fuel efficiency

up to 28% of new monoset pumps being

manufactured in next 5 years.

PCRA identified this equipment with

substantial potential for conservation of Diesel

through use of fuel efficient Agricultural

pump sets.

Ministry of Power accorded its approval

to PCRA’s above benchmarking proposals

in association with BEE under Energy

Conservation Act 2001 on Diesel run

Monosets for agricultural purposes (2-10

HP) in Dec-13, including mention of “In

Association with PCRA” on all labels to be put

up on Star rated products.

Scheme is now operational. The ‘Label Design’

is given below:

Implementation of Standards & Labeling

Programme for Diesel Generator Sets (Up

to 200 KVA)

According to the survey carried by PCRA,

the DG set market is a well-organized and

highly competitive. The market witnessed

steady growth in the last decade on account

of chronic power shortages and rapid growth

across several segments such as industries,

infrastructure, telecommunication and

information technology (IT) / IT enabled

services. The Genset market in India is valued

at more than INR 50 Billion. An increasing

power demand-supply deficit acts as major

Energy is the most vital input for our economic

development and therefore its consumption

and conservation are very important aspects of

economy. Research has shown that there is an

enough potential available for conservation of

petroleum products by adopting & ingraining

simple conservation tips.

Mega Campaign-2013

With this background in mind, PCRA

launched its Mega Campaign-2013 (through

DAVP empanelled agencies) in a bigger

manner than the previous ones, in terms of

money as well as the number of activities.

The specialty of the Mega Campaign was to

involve the entire Oil Marketing Companies

and to initiates a number of people connect

activities so as to drive a point at home to

generate all round awareness regarding

judicious use of petroleum products amongst

the general masses leading to saving of

petroleum products.

Outdoor media is very effective media for

dissemination of conservation messages for

users of vehicles. This time, the conservation

messages were displayed also by Oil

Marketing Companies at their Retail Outlets

and LPG Distributorship through hoardings

and banners. Realizing the importance of

information technology, PCRA carried out the

campaigns through bulk SMS push carrying

conservation tips, campaigns through digital

media and internet websites. Brief details of
