The Bureau of Energy Efficiency India or BEE was established on 1st March 2002 by the government of India. The organization was established on the provisions set by the Energy conservation Act of 2001. Prime aim of BEE is to reduce the energy consumption in the country and to promote energy efficiency through various strategies and policies. The Bureau of Energy Efficiency India also aims at organizing the energy efficiency services in the country and to develop the mechanisms to offer these services. There are a number of organizations that are involved in the movement of energy conservation in the country and providing leadership to these movements is also under the agenda of BEE.

Energy conservation is an important issue for every country of the world. In India, a number of energy conservation programs and energy efficiency programs are run by different organizations. These programs need a definite guideline and policy framework to achieve their objectives. The BEE is doing the same and trying to promote these programs. At the same time, maintaining proper cooperation between different programs is also very important factor and this is also taken care by the Bureau. It also has the responsibility of briefing all these programs to the stakeholders to make them interested in all these.

The Bureau of Energy Efficiency India has the responsibility monitoring the effects of the energy efficiency programs on different sectors of the country. It is also involved in the process of implementing the Energy Conservation Act and to design programs according to this Act. For the purpose, BEE encourages the private sector to work jointly with the public sector. It also ensures the delivery of different programs related to energy efficiency. For implementing all these programs, the Bureau of Energy Efficiency India can take help from different public as well as private organizations of the country. It can also ask the research institutes and other technical services organizations for their support in implementing the energy conservation programs.

BEE has its own website that is used for the purpose of providing information on energy conservation programs. This website is also used to offer various details about the framework designed for the purpose of implementing the EC Act of 2001.
