EESL rolls out affordable induction cooktops to promote e-cooking
Hyderabad: In a major push towards safer kitchens, energy efficiency and sustainable household practices, Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) has unveiled a multi-pronged strategy to accelerate the adoption of electric cooking (e-cooking) across the country under the National Efficient Cooking Programme (NECP).
EESL CEO Akhilesh Kumar Dixit announced an exclusive public and household offer featuring a 1,200W induction cook top with compatible cookware at just Rs. 6,990 per unit, inclusive of taxes.
Highlighting the significance of the initiative, Dixit said that induction cooking eliminates open flames and combustion within the kitchen, substantially reducing the risks associated with conventional flame-based cooking, including fire hazards and accidental gas leakages.
It also provides greater temperature control, convenience and a cleaner indoor cooking environment. Calling upon households across the country to embrace the initiative, EESL CEO urged citizens to make informed and responsible cooking choices and become active participants in India's clean energy journey.
With induction cooktops transferring nearly 85 per cent of energy directly to the cooking vessel, compared with approximately 40 per cent efficiency in conventional LPG cooking, e-cooking offers significant potential to reduce energy wastage. Depending on prevailing electricity tariffs and LPG prices, it can also deliver considerable savings to households, particularly those using non-subsidised LPG,” the CEO said.
