What is Energy Efficiency in Real Estate?
The most effective way to minimize energy expenses and reduce carbon emissions is to improve the energy efficiency of existing and new buildings and equipment. Savings of 20–50 percent can be reached with commercially appealing paybacks, if conducted correctly.
Why aim for energy efficiency?
Energy optimization means maximizing the way you use energy in the buildings. This goes beyond simply conserving energy and involves improving energy efficiency (and savings) in the spaces occupied. This can optimize your system by preventing it from becoming overworked.
How could energy efficiency benefit your business?
There are numerous reasons why property managers or asset managers should consider optimizing their energy use, ranging from the obvious environmental and financial benefits to potential physical health benefits.
Whether your reason for energy conservation is economic or environmental, the advantages of energy efficiency will benefit all users. The following are the top eight reasons why energy efficiency is critical for buildings and for optimizing energy use:
- Protect the environment
- Reduce utility bills
- Earn a greater return on investment
- Increase property value
- Enhance quality of life
- Energy savings tips help you easily cut costs
- Earn incremental returns on energy efficiency investments
- Insulate yourself from rising electricity prices
