First step is to check your present state of operations. Get an Energy Audit done.

1. Use of Capacitor Bank (to maintain power factor) should be implemented on strong way.

2. During off period of work like Lunch break and after office hours, individuals should take care of Putting Off the A.C, Light and other equipments which are on line without depending on the office boy to attend them.

3. Electrical items in Conference hall should be switched on just 10-15 min. before the meeting comences and should be switched off immediately the meeting finishes as lot of power is consumed there because of installations od AC, different type of dimming lights and projectors.

Also conducting awareness programmes as just my friend SANTOSH KUMAR MUKHLAL....
