Reducing electricity consumption, LITOCLEAN’s sustainable goal

The company managed to reduce its electricity consumption by nearly 1% in 2019.

Following the calculations made for 2019, it was found that LITOCLEAN managed to reduce the electricity consumption of its central offices, located in Barcelona, by 0.72% compared to the previous year. Throughout the year, consumption fell by more than 10 kWh per person.

To achieve the reduction, improvements have been carried out throughout 2019 in the facilities, such as renewing the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) for one of lower consumption, a fact that derives in the cancellation of the ventilation system of the old UPS and the air renewal system of the upper floor of the office. The light bulbs have also been progressively replaced with energy-saving LEDs and motion detectors have been installed in the bathrooms. In addition, all employees have been made aware of the need to contribute to this energy saving.

LITOCLEAN continues its commitment to be more sustainable and thus contribute to the objectives of the 2030 Agenda, so for this 2020 it has proposed to review the installation of air conditioning to assess what options exist to reduce consumption, in addition to replacing fluorescent lamps with LEDs.
