The last article described the issues involved in improving the efficiency of electric motors. Electric motors account for a significant portion of the overall electricity consumption. Generation & utilization of electric energy itself is a major contributor to the pollution, accounting for as much as 40% of the total green house gases produced globally. As the country progresses further on the development path, the per capita electricity consumption will go up on an ascending manner. Even to catch up with the rest of world, our consumption will increase around four fold. Unless we learn to use energy more efficiently our pollution levels will go up significantly and will not be sustainable. India is already the third biggest polluter of the world, after China and USA. With a lot of emphasis in getting a faster growth for the country to lift millions of people out of poverty, it is to be expected that our electricity consumption has necessarily to go up.
