CURRENT BEE STAR RATING ISEER TABLE Now SHIFT TO NEW ISEER TABLE w.e.f 1st July-2022
The objective of a BEE’s Standards & Labeling Program is to provide the consumer an informed choice about the energy saving
and thereby, the cost saving of appliances.
In order to meet the consumer requirement, BEE (Bureau of Energy Efficiency) keeps on improving the labeling standards. Initially,
they changed and merged the rating methodology for Inverter & Fixed Speed air conditioners by introducing ISEER (Indian
Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) in 2018 and now, changed the ISEER TABLE w.e.f 1st July 2022 as given in next slide.

BENEFITS

Benefits of Star Labelling

 Star rating schemes allow us to compare the operating cost and
environmental performance of similar products.
 This allows us to make better choices and see the potential ongoing
future costs and greenhouse gas impacts our decisions may have.
 Energy labels, on the other hand, are the informative labels affixed to
manufactured products in order to provide consumers with the data
necessary for making informed purchases.

Unique Technology which contributes in energy efficiency
Patented Swing Compressor

Energy-savings with improvement in compression efficiency

Swing compressor is a
modified advance type of
Rotary Compressor:
 It saves electricity for lower
pressure return during compression

 Quiet and efficient for low friction

and vibration (better than rotary
compressor)
Adopted cylinder structure - less liable to heat
 Patented by Daikin - no other AC

Variable Speed Inverter AC (Automatic)
Daikin Inverter is true inverter AC, Daikin DC inverter models are equipped with the reluctance DC motor for compressor. The reluctance DC motor uses two different types of
torque, neodymium magnet and reluctance torque. This motor saves energy by generating more power with a smaller electric current than AC or conventional DC motors.
Swing Compressor Technology have Variable Speed automatic compressors with wider rotational frequency range, these wide frequency range ensures faster cooling and more
efficiency. It constantly adjusts the compressor’s speed to maintain desired levels of temperature and assured energy savings – both power and electricity bills.

According to a survey by
Daikin (based on Air
Conditioning Network
Service System Data)
Integrated Energy Efficiency Ratio (IEER)
addresses the actual efficiency of HVAC
equipment that operates at different load
levels.
This ratio accounts for both full load and part
load efficiencies.

IEER = (0.020 x A) + (0.617 x B) + (0.238 x C) + (0.125 x D)

A = EER@100%, B = EER@75%,
C = EER@50%, D = EER@25%

Market transformation strategy Proposal – Industry to
Government

With successful launch of Star Labelling program in which RAMA collaborated with BEE in developing and implementation of
the program and the upgrades in tables subsequently. RAMA advocates to look at alternatives for energy efficiency/saving to
meet the NDC goals. One such initiative which is implemented is adoption 24 Degree Centigrade as default temperature. Apart
from reduction in energy consumptions through new equipment, RAMA is proposing to BEE to develop replacement policy for
old inefficient ACs that are 10 years plus old. This will have multiple benefits to all the stake holders

 Reduction in cost of energy bill annually

 Lower cost of service/maintenance/part replacement
 Reduction in carbon footprint which will help in contributing to meet NDC
 Meet the E waste targets as well establish the chain of recycling
 Growth for industry and thus bringing economy of scale to launch affordable AC
 Provide scale to bring competitiveness in conjunction with PLI scheme to create exports opportunities
 Encourage Make in India initiative of Government of India, establish competitive supply chain in India
 Additional revenue in form of GST to government
 Create employment across supply chain
 Encourage to MSME for local production of AC parts
