Today, March 5th, the World Energy Efficiency Day is celebrated all over the world. This fact shows us the importance that efficiency and savings have in our daily lives and in our near future due to the clear signs of climate change.
Tips for saving on your electricity bill
General recommendations
Recommendations as simple as using low-consumption light bulbs or modernising the lift are some of the measures that can help your community to be more efficient, contribute to a more sustainable world and, no less important , save on community expenses .
Recommendations for elevators
Replacing the central unit of a hydraulic elevator with a new technology dry motor from GMV means savings on the electricity bill of up to 40% . This is because the new technology of dry motors offers greater performance than conventional motors.
High-efficiency dry engines are being used, as required by the new engine construction directive.
In addition, we can replace the mechanical valve group with an electronic one that is more efficient and allows a reduction in the contracted power required.
In its commitment to protecting the environment, GMV Eurolift, with its Dry plants, contributes to reducing energy consumption in the Spanish building stock and collaborates in the fight against climate change.
To date, only 0.3% of existing buildings in Spain have implemented interventions to increase energy efficiency. This figure shows us that there is still much to be done in this regard.
A comment
A tariff with time discrimination is the best way to save for almost all households. It is in your interest if you are able to concentrate at least 30% of the electricity you consume during off-peak hours (from 10 p.m. to 12 p.m.; from 11 p.m. to 1 p.m. in summer). Households that do not have this tariff consume on average 50% during off-peak hours, so without additional efforts they could save 80 a year on their electricity bill.
