Is everyone working on their own level for the environment? And that’s the difficulty. Yes, if our blue planet is in such bad shape, it is because a large majority of humans have not been able to find the “right” actions to preserve it. Of course, it’s more complicated than that, but working small and with several people already makes it possible to move the lines. A step taken, it is first a conscious mind that must act and it is precisely in this niche that SPIE Facilities intervenes

Why raise awareness about energy sobriety?
Raising awareness among citizens or building occupants about energy efficiency is accompanied by a real objective: to change behavior to achieve even greater energy savings.energiesenergies. Because energy sobriety is not a shooting starshooting star passed too quickly, it is part of a sustainable perspective to ensure a more secure energy future. And businesses also have their role to play! This is why they are starting/continuing to get involved and are implementing awareness-raising actions to encourage their employees and building occupants to take part in this phenomenon.
Therefore, energy awareness will make it possible, under the aegis of the butterfly effect, to:
- reduce the greenhouse gasgreenhouse gas using energy more efficiently,
- preserve and limit the use of non-renewable natural resources,
- save the biodiversitybiodiversity,
- make financial savings,
- improve the quality ofairair and water,
- adopt responsible behaviors in a sustainable manner…
The example of SPIE Facilities to raise awareness among building occupants
While a company’s employees are already aware of sustainable developmentsustainable developmentits Quality, Safety, Health and Environment Department in charge of energy saving plans calls on the Workspace Manager to continue to encourage them in their commitment.
This is where Sophie Delaitre and her innovative ideas are sought after! After reflection, the implementation of a “black out” in the company was decided with a focus on the uses that could be affected without impacting the activity or the safety of people. Thus, lighting in corridors, non-essential sockets, some elevators, hot water tankshot water tanks for hand washing will incur the cost of cuts, these actions being accompanied by relevant communication and an explanation of the desired energy savings.
Result ? Heating consumption was reduced by 10%, electricity consumption fell by 20% and corridor lighting has since become timed lighting!
