Agents and distributors of air-conditioners (ACs) in Qatar have been given time until January 1, 2017 to clear their stocks before the prescribed specifications for energy-saving ACs (window and split) come into effect.
Qatar General Electricity & Water Corporation (Kahramaa) has said the public awareness campaign it is leading through the National Programme for Conservation and Energy Efficiency (Tarsheed) has gained momentum.
Major distributors and retailers of air-conditioners in the country have chalked out plans to implement Kahramaa's decision to introduce the Energy Star rating system to ensure the power efficiency of ACs.
As the weather gets hotter in the country, some transport contractors are busy installing air-conditioners (ACs) in buses that are used to ferry workers, it is learnt.
