Energy Saving Tips for Small Businesses

These are tough economic times. The news is always warning of an impending global recession, sparked by conflicts in Europe and supply chain disruptions.

It is especially unnerving for smaller businesses to navigate these uncertain times. Hence, they are looking for ways to reduce their operating costs in a bid to improve the bottom line 

One of the best ways to make a noticeable difference in this area is by implementing energy-saving steps. Here’s how:

Flexi Working Hours

Encourage staff to come in early when it is much cooler in the mornings. This will allow minimal usage of air-conditioning. Programme the thermostat accordingly to match the temperatures outside and the staff capacity.

The benefit to employees is earlier clock-out times, allowing them to beat peak-hour traffic. Again, if an organisation can implement this, it means less stress on air-conditioning during the hotter afternoon and early evening times. What may seem like a negligible sum monthly will tally up in the long run.

Install Automatic Doors

It may seem an unnecessary expense but far too often, staff or visitors fail to properly shut the manual doors, leading to hours of leaked air-conditioning. It will also give your organisation a modern, professional façade.

Conduct An Energy Audit

To make informed decisions on energy saving, it is best to conduct an energy audit. Contact the area’s energy provider since they usually provide this service.

A detailed report of the organisation’s power consumption patterns will highlight which area is contributing most to the energy bill. Consult the relevant experts to pinpoint the exact measures that can be taken, but it all starts with a detailed energy audit.
