Climate Change Issues in India vis-à-vis Globe Petroleum Conservation & Research Association (Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas) 10,Bhicaji Cama Place, New Delhi-110066 Phone(D): 011-26198856 Who Are We? Emergence of PCRA 1973 Study team Study : Oil crisis world over : Engineers from IOCL, NPC, DGTD estimated huge oil conservation potential in industries & STUs : Conservation potential of 20-30% results 6th Jan : Petroleum Conservation Action Group (PCAG) formed 10th : PCAG reconstituted as “Petroleum Conservation Research Association” (PCRA) and registered as a society under MOP&NG, Government of India ’76 Aug’78 Vision To become a Centre of Excellence for “Conservation of Hydrocarbons & Environment Protection” for Sustainable Development on Our Inherent Strength Mission Efficient Energy Utilization And Environmental Protection Leading To Improvement In Quality Of Life Objectives Formulate strategies for accelerating Conservation Create mass awareness on conservation potential and methods for conservation Promote Research, Development and Deployment Efforts Establish Synergistic Institutional Linkages Provide training and technical advisory services Function as a ‘Think Tank’ for the Government of India for proposing policies and plan of action on Petroleum Conservation & Environment Protection.

Usage of Energy is responsible for Climatic Change. We have control only on demand side management wrt Energy. Markets are very competitive, so conservation automatically becomes vital. More than 40% of our total export are spent in Crude Import. World energy consumption has risen 45% since 1980 and it is projected to be 70% higher by 2030! With the Present rate of Global Consumption: Fossil Fuel shall continue for 45 years and Coal for 200 Years. Due to the intrinsic efficiency of power plants and transmission/distribution losses, 1kWh of usage requires 3kWh of production: so, 1kWh saved= 3kWh produced Just understanding your energy usage and simple action on it can lead up to 10-15% savings without any capital investment ! Most of the causes are strongly tied to human activities that support better life systems. What’s the difference between “global warming” and “climate change”? Difference GLOBAL WARMING CLIMATE CHANGE is the increase of the is a broader term that Earth’s average refers to long-term surface temperature changes in climate, due to a build-up of including average greenhouse gases in temperature and the atmosphere. precipitation. 1. Global Warming Cause: Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel burning power plants Our ever increasing addiction to electricity from coal burning power plants releases enormous amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. 40% of U.S. CO2 emissions come from electricity production, and burning coal accounts for 93% of emissions from the electric utility industry. Every day, more electric gadgets flood the market, and without widespread alternative energy sources, we are highly dependent on burning coal for our personal and commercial electrical supply. Ozone Depletion CF2Cl2 Cl ClO + 4v=Cl + O3=ClO + O =Cl + CF2Cl + O2 + O2 Ozone Layer Depletion Consequences A. In Human Being Increases Instances of 1. Skin Cancer 2. Cataracts 3. Weakened immune systems 4. Damages DNA Structure B. Adverse effect on crop yield C. Adverse effect on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem Can we stop global warming? BIG YES What can you do to help solve the problem? Simple Things To Do Turn off your computer or the TV when you’re not using it. Take shorter showers. Heating water uses energy. Keep rooms cool by closing the blinds, shades, or curtains. Turn off the lights when you leave a room. Use compact fluorescent/LED bulbs. Simple Things To Do Do not leave your appliances on standby. Cover pots while cooking/use pressure cooking Reuse your shopping bag Plant as many trees as you can Simple Things To Do Dress lightly when it’s hot instead of using cooling devices Dress warmly when it’s cold instead of turning up the heating devices. Offer to help your parents keep the air filters on your AC and furnace clean. Walk short distances instead of asking for a ride in the car. Use Public Transport Recycle. Be Bulb Smart—Use LED /CFLs Incandescent Energy saving devices may cost a little extra but the pays offs much in terms longer life spans and energy saved. 250 Kgs. of coal • CO2 pollution avoided •Rs saved Compact Fluorescent LED BULB Energy Efficiency & Energy Costs Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) Life Span (average) Incandescent Light Bulbs Compact Fluorescents (CFLs) 50,000 hours 1,200 hours 8,000 hours 6 - 8 watts 60 watts 13-15 watts Watts of electricity used (equivalent to 60 watt bulb). LEDs use less power (watts) per unit of light generated (lumens). LEDs help reduce greenhouse gas emissions from power plants and lower electric bills Energy Savings in Lighting & Fans • Payback period of CFL/LED assuming its cost as Rs 110/- /Rs 400 is 2 months/ 7 Months only. If 1 Crore 60 Watt bulbs are replaced by 15 Watt CFL/8 watt LED for usage of 8 hrs./day, the total energy saved will be 1200 MWh/1387MWh per annum.
