Energy Data Management Unit :
India is a power surplus nation with a total installed capacity of over 400 GW. Hence it becomes very important to have energy access, energy security, and energy transition at the global and national level. A robust, consistent, and reliable energy data can help understand the energy profile of a country.
The Energy Data Management Unit developed by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency under the aegis of the Ministry of Power will compile and publish credible data regarding the supply and consumption of energy across sectors. It will also be publishing a comprehensive report “National Energy Data: Survey and Analysis” which will provide detailed fuel-wise energy consumption data for various sectors.
The EDMU database will provide the country’s energy supply data for different fuels, as well as energy consumption data by various energy consumers across different sectors. The EDMU database will also provide energy savings and emission reduction across the major energy efficiency schemes of India.
This database will help improve the energy data reporting in India in sectors where it is difficult to collect such data. This detailing will enable a better understanding of the energy profile of various sectors, subsectors, and consumer groups.
