The Labour Resources Department of the Bihar Government has achieved a major achievement in the field of energy efficiency and environmental conservation. The Department's Niyojan Bhawan located in Patna has been awarded a 5-star rating by the Government of India.
Rating based on 'More Stars-More Savings' standards
This rating has been given on the basis of "More Stars-More Savings" standards, which are given to energy efficient buildings in the composite climate zone of the country. Better performance in low load of 1000 KVA is a major feature of this building.
Behind the success of the department in the field of energy conservation, not only technical measures but also the dedicated participation of lower level employees to senior officers has been there. On this occasion, the Secretary of the Department, Deepak Anand, organized a special meeting and urged all the employees to take a pledge of energy conservation.
Big message of the Secretary of the Department
He said that this achievement is not limited to the office only but is also an opportunity to promote the habit of energy conservation in the personal life of every employee. He said that the department will continue to give priority to energy conservation not only in Niyojan Bhawan but also in departmental buildings located across the state.
Strong step towards balanced development
The department has successfully implemented the policy of use of energy saving equipment, use of solar energy, water conservation measures and maximum output with minimum resources to ensure energy efficiency. Along with this, environmental protection, awareness towards climate change and financial discipline have also been given policy priority.
This 5 star rating is not only a matter of pride for the department but is also an inspiring example for other departments of the Bihar government, which will prove to be a strong step towards sustainable and environmentally balanced development of the state
