After receiving the award, Mr. Manish Sharma – Managing Director- Consumer Product Division, Panasonic India
said, “We are thankful to the Bureau of Energy Efficiency, Government
of India, to have recognized our green innovation efforts which indeed
have resulted in higher energy efficiency of our products. One of the
ways in which we have integrated our contributions to the environment
with business growth is by creating our ‘eco ideas’ mark to help our
customers quickly and clearly identify products that have been designed
to minimize energy and resource use. This certainly is our step forward
towards realizing our vision of becoming the No. 1 Green Innovation
Company in the Electronics Industry by 2018. We have been putting the
environment at the centre of our business decisions as a way to bring
forth our vision of “Green Life Innovation” and “Green Business
Innovation.” Winning this award is extremely reassuring that we are on
the right track and would definitely strengthen the faith our customers
have in our green products.”
Air Conditioner is a product that a consumer would associate with
high electricity consumption in turn leading to high electricity bills.
That is why the consumers in the low to middle income group treat an air
conditioner as a high involvement purchase decision product. Having a
power consumption of 1530 W Panasonic TC 1.5 ton 5 star Jade series
gives you more energy savings over a non star rated air conditioner in
the long run. The energy conservation depends on the input power, the
running hours and the cost of per unit electricity. If we compare
Panasonic 1.5 ton Jade series having a power input of 1530W with a 1.5
ton non star rated air conditioner having a power input of 2510W, with
80% compressor being functional we can easily say that the consumers
will save up to 39.04 percent on their electricity bill.
Panasonic’s CS-TC18NKY/CU-TC18NKY, a 5 Star air conditioner is the
winning product in the consumer goods category. Several unique features
in the air conditioner make it highly efficient in energy conservation.
The Econavi mono sensor in the air conditioner can detect wasted energy
and automatically select optimum energy saving operation which leads
savings up to 20 percent. The High activity detection feature
automatically increases cooling power to improve comfort when needed.
The Anti Bacterial Filter which combines three effects in one: anti
allergen, antivirus & anti bacteria protection to provide 99 percent
clean air for a healthy lifestyle. The Soft Dry Mode starts with
cooling to dehumidify and provides continuous breeze at a low frequency
to keep a room dry without much change to the temperature. The anti-rust
coating on the condenser and the super tropical compressor make the
product highly efficient and help it perform well under high load
conditions.
Panasonic has long focused its efforts in India on developing the
best products possible for its Indian customers and employees. As a
testimony to that the company has recently inaugurated its first
environment friendly model factory in India in the town of Jhajjar,
Haryana. It is the largest manufacturing facility for Panasonic’s global
operations yet the factory will create almost zero waste. The
introduction of a number of eco-features in the Techno Park Jhajjar
factory, make it one of the greenest facilities Panasonic operates
globally.
