The greener energy is the unused ...
One of the major cost centers in today's Businesses and Organizations is the consumption of electricity. But apart from the economic dimension of the issue, there is also the environmental. By properly managing electricity consumption, we are also reducing our environmental impacts by reducing CO2 emissions. Optimal management of energy consumption can only be achieved as long as there is a complete picture of where, when, why and to what extent these consumables exist.
Surveys conducted in recent years on 10,000 companies in the European Union found that about 46% of total electricity is consumed during non-business hours and days. The sample size of the survey is so large that this percentage is now officially accepted. So, for example if you run a business or organization between 8am and 4pm, five days a week, then the total non-working hours per year is about 6,760 hours. In most cases, employees do not turn off shared office equipment such as photocopiers, printers, PC screens, etc., either believing that the equipment is not important or negligent.
