- Start monitoring and recording actual consumption: this will help you identify and work on your critical areas
- Train your staff: raising their awareness of energy saving can lead to small changes
- Invest in routine maintenance to reduce extraordinary maintenance
- Involve your guests: tell them about your commitment and include reminders to encourage them to optimise consumption
- Optimise your heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems: a difference of just 1°C can lead to a significant change in energy consumption
- Install photovoltaic panels for domestic hot water and heating, complete with accumulators that not only allow you to produce green energy from sunlight, but also to store excess energy for use when the weather is less favourable or consumption is at its peak.
- Replace your boiler with a modern, high-tech solution
- Install a cogeneration system, i.e. a system that allows you to produce electricity and, at the same time, heat for heating.
- Replace traditional light bulbs with LED bulbs
- Install presence sensors and smart sockets: this way, the system itself recognises whether or not guests are present and optimises consumption
