Where is energy being wasted?
Estimated consumption measured against expected consumption, category by category. The gap between them is the part worth acting on — and each row carries a number, a priority and a recommendation.
Street Lighting
- Expected consumption
- 287,825 kWh
- Estimated consumption
- 364,174 kWh
- Wastage
- 76,349 kWh
- Potential savings
- 52,127 kWh
- Value per day
- ₹4.43 L
- Annual savings
- ₹16.17 Cr
Recommendation. Convert remaining sodium-vapour fittings to LED and enable astronomical-clock dimming after 23:00.
Industrial Areas
- Expected consumption
- 916,142 kWh
- Estimated consumption
- 1,009,754 kWh
- Wastage
- 93,612 kWh
- Potential savings
- 56,927 kWh
- Value per day
- ₹4.84 L
- Annual savings
- ₹17.66 Cr
Recommendation. Idle-load draw on process equipment between shifts; candidate for automated shutdown.
Commercial Buildings
- Expected consumption
- 692,959 kWh
- Estimated consumption
- 774,555 kWh
- Wastage
- 81,596 kWh
- Potential savings
- 54,141 kWh
- Value per day
- ₹4.60 L
- Annual savings
- ₹16.80 Cr
Recommendation. Facade and signage lighting continues past permitted hours across the market zones.
Water Infrastructure
- Expected consumption
- 531,438 kWh
- Estimated consumption
- 612,502 kWh
- Wastage
- 81,064 kWh
- Potential savings
- 46,461 kWh
- Value per day
- ₹3.95 L
- Annual savings
- ₹14.41 Cr
Recommendation. Pumping schedules are not aligned to the solar peak; shift lift-station duty cycles to daytime.
Public Buildings
- Expected consumption
- 412,437 kWh
- Estimated consumption
- 487,327 kWh
- Wastage
- 74,889 kWh
- Potential savings
- 55,574 kWh
- Value per day
- ₹4.72 L
- Annual savings
- ₹17.24 Cr
Recommendation. Set HVAC baselines by occupancy; several buildings run full cooling outside working hours.
Residential Areas
- Expected consumption
- 778,045 kWh
- Estimated consumption
- 826,459 kWh
- Wastage
- 48,414 kWh
- Potential savings
- 31,198 kWh
- Value per day
- ₹2.65 L
- Annual savings
- ₹9.68 Cr
Recommendation. Common-area lighting and lift standby account for most of the avoidable draw.
EV Infrastructure
- Expected consumption
- 197,724 kWh
- Estimated consumption
- 210,754 kWh
- Wastage
- 13,029 kWh
- Potential savings
- 9,569 kWh
- Value per day
- ₹81.3 K
- Annual savings
- ₹2.97 Cr
Recommendation. Charger standby and cooling overhead at low-utilisation stations; consolidate off-peak availability.
