Energy saving: is it really an achievable goal for SMEs or is it reserved for the budgets of large companies?
Italian small and medium-sized businesses often face unique challenges when it comes to managing energy costs and improving efficiency. However, with the right strategies and solutions, energy savings can become an achievable goal, bringing numerous economic and environmental benefits.
Strategies for energy saving in SMEs
To achieve significant results in energy savings, it is important to adopt several targeted strategies.
Energy audit
A professional energy audit, which is a campaign to measure and analyze energy consumption and business processes, can help identify areas of energy waste within your company, enabling targeted corrective measures to be taken. This detailed assessment of your energy activities will allow you to identify inefficiencies and critical points for improvement.
Energy Efficiency
Investing in innovative technologies and solutions to optimize energy use can lead to significant long-term energy savings. For example, installing energy-efficient LED lighting systems or adopting energy-efficient electronic equipment can help reduce operating costs and improve overall business efficiency. Another key step is to act on waste. In particular, eliminating waste due to surges, through voltage optimizers, can generate savings in electricity consumption averaging between 5 percent and 7 percent.
Awareness raising and training
Involving employees in promoting sustainable energy practices and virtuous behavior can help create an energy-saving-oriented corporate culture. Organizing training sessions on energy best practices and involving employees in monitoring and controlling energy consumption can incentivize responsible actions and reduce waste. Sometimes it really only takes a few simple rules to reduce consumption in important ways. Just think of the often exaggerated use of heating or air conditioning, perhaps with windows and doors open rather than the use of lights in unused rooms or leaving appliances on even during the night. A few gestures that multiplied over the year can do a lot for the company and the environment.

In fact, investing in energy conservation can not only lead to significant savings in operating costs and thus give you a higher margin on individual products and improve your metrics such as EBITDA, but it also helps reduce your company's environmental impact and improve your reputation in the marketplace. A "green" reputation is increasingly crucial both in direct sales to the end consumer and in B2B relationships. Especially more and more companies are asking and will ask their suppliers what their ESG metrics are and what they are doing to improve them and lower their carbon footprint.
Consider that the savings generated by Icopower equipment, being measured with the same protocol indicated by the GSE for CertificatiBianchi (TEE) is usable in the solidarity budget and can be communicated to customers and suppliers.
