Recently, the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), released the State Energy Efficiency Index (SEEI) 2024.

About State Energy Efficiency Index

• It is developed by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) in association with the Alliance for an Energy Efficient Economy (AEEE).
• The index assesses the energy efficiency performance of 36 States and Union Territories (UTs) for FY 2023-24, supporting data-driven monitoring, best practice sharing, and healthy competition among states.
• This year it is the sixth edition features a new implementation-focused framework with 66 indicators covering Buildings, Industry, Municipal Services, Transport, Agriculture, DISCOMs, and Cross-Sector initiatives, reflecting evolving priorities like EV policies, star-rated buildings, and DSM strategies.
• SEEI 2024 serves as a key policy tool for guiding state-level actions and accelerating India’s energy efficiency and climate goals.
• States are classified into four performance categories: Front Runners (>60%), Achievers (50-60%), Contenders (30-50%), and Aspirants (<30%).

Key Highlights of the State Energy Efficiency Index Index

• The top performers include:Maharashtra (Group 1: >15 MToE), Andhra Pradesh (Group 2: 5–15 MToE) Assam (Group 3: 1–5 MToE) Tripura (Group 4: <1 MToE)
• The report highlights sectoral progress: 24 states have notified ECBC 2017; 10 states have MSME energy efficiency policies; 31 states have adopted electric mobility policies; and 13 states are promoting solar-powered agricultural pumps, with Kerala achieving 74% adoption. 
• Additionally, all 36 States/UTs have developed State Energy Efficiency Action Plans (SEEAPs), and 31 have formed State-Level Steering Committees on Energy Transition.
