The Emirates Authority for Standardisation and Metrology, ESMA, has developed its eighth national energy efficiency programme, the TV Efficiency Project, which is expected to reduce the cost of electricity bills by some 50 per cent,

It will also reduce government subsidies for electricity generation costs, as part of the UAE Green Growth Strategy.

This rule is also keeping in mind to match or be consistent with most important European legislation to increase energy efficiency.
It will reduce the value of government financial support by up to Dh73 million and contribute to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 225 thousand meters cube, equivalent of the cultivation of 150 thousand trees, he said.
