Energieeffizienz-Konzeption: Energiekosten senken & Auflagen erfüllen
- Analysis & immediate measures
- Preparation for audits
- Support with the implementation of certifications
A sustainable Energy efficiency concept with the subsequent implementation of the energy-saving measures is for many companies already mandatory and helps to save. The pressure to reduce CO₂ emissions is increasing due to the Energy Efficiency Act (EnEfG) and the new or revised climate and environmental protection laws. Whereas previously only large companies with an annual electricity consumption of more than 7.5 GWh had to deal with energy efficiency certification, companies with more than 250 employees and/or an annual turnover of more than 50 million euros or an annual balance sheet total of more than 43 million euros now also have to undergo energy efficiency certification. Energy audit according to DIN EN 16247-1 have to undergo. In addition, they are obliged to implement the identified savings measures even after DIN EN 17463 implement.
Energy efficiency concept as an introduction to certifications
To fulfill requirements and Impending fines affected companies should start now at the latest with the energy efficiency concept. It not only prepares them for the mandatory energy audits, but is often the starting point for certifications that lead to further enormous cost reductions through subsidies and tax breaks. In addition ISO 50001, EMAS or ISO 50005 certifications not only objectively improve energy efficiency and reduce energy costs, but also increase the Competitive advantages, facilitate cooperation and improve the image of a company.
Advantages of a holistic strategy
By introducing energy-efficient processes and technologies, companies reduce their energy bills and operating costs. Depending on the planned measure, this can already lead to considerable savings in the short term and reduce energy costs in the medium term. Increase profitability and competitiveness. In addition to the cost savings and environmental benefits, efficient machines and processes usually also increase production. Not only do they consume less energy, they also work more effectively and offer better performance and reliability. The Utilization of waste heat with simultaneous energy-efficient Building insulation for example, reduces heating costs enormously. In a similar way, even a simple conversion of industrial and commercial buildings to LED lighting lead to considerable success.
Comprehensive support from the CUBE CONCEPTS partner network
The CUBE CONCEPTS partner network clarifies many questions as part of the energy efficiency concept, such as how energy-efficient are the internal processes, where can fossil energy savings, how high are the savings potentials and what further savings can be made? Benefits can companies expect? During the stocktaking and analysis, the first Recommendations for immediate action is developed. In the further course, a company-specific Energy management system identified and supported during implementation. This includes defining the areas of application and responsibilities as well as providing support during restructuring. In addition, the CUBE CONCEPTS partner network offers advice on financing and implementing the identified modernization measures in order to support companies on their way to an efficient and sustainable energy supply.
