AWIHOME – RENEWABLE AND SUSTAINABLE ALSO IN PRODUCTION AND AT WORK

Renewable is what drives AWITE, day after day. That’s why they don’t want to limit themselves to manufacturing gas analysis systems for renewable applications, but also want to implement sustainability more and more in their production.

What has AWITE done since the beginning of 2022 to improve the step towards energy self-sufficient, modern and sustainable production?

• Switching to LED lamps and thus saving > 10 % of our energy consumption.
• Saving packaging material and delivery traffic by using used cardboard boxes as packaging material.
• Equipping our building with contacts for windows and doors, locking systems, smoke and fire detectors, CO monitoring in meeting rooms.
• Extension of our grid connection and expansion of our PV system from 25 kWp to 68 kWp – commissioning in November 2022.
• Installation of a 44 kWh energy storage unit.
• Installation of a high-tech weather station for better data and forecasts – for the future.
• Installation of an info touch screen with current consumption and generation, as well as an app, so that all colleagues can follow along.

And what comes next? They are continuing in the direction of e-mobility with a small e-supply point for bicycles, additional wall boxes for e-vehicles and want to make our energy management, storage and charging processes forward-looking and intelligent this year. Energy meters will help to identify further savings potentials and our heating system (which has of course been running on a brine heat pump for 13 years) is also to be brought up to scratch.

And then they’re sure to have the next ideas, let them surprise you.
