Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) inaugurated the National Efficient Cooking Programme (NECP) in Tripura, distributing 2,000 induction cooktops to Anganwadi Centres across the state. This initiative, in collaboration with the Tripura State Electricity Corporation Limited (TSECL) and the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), aims to promote energy efficiency and transition to clean electric cooking methods.
The event was attended by key officials, including Tripura’s Minister of Power, Shri Ratan Lal Nath, and EESL’s CEO, Shri Vishal Kapoor. This program addresses health and environmental concerns associated with traditional biomass cooking, offering a cost-effective and safer alternative.
