Are you wondering what to do to reduce energy consumption in your office building by making better use of your office equipment? GreenBuilding team is here to support you! Make a note of the following 7 tips and you will measure significant energy savings.

• Tip 1 - Choose laptops instead of desktops

Laptops typically consume less energy compared to desktops, so keep this in mind!  This can save 80-90% of your electrical cost!

• Tip 2 - Switch off all printers, scanners, microwaves, air conditioners, coffee vending machines during weekends or holidays

• Tip 3 - Replace your old devices with new ones

Energy-efficient devices cost more in advance, but based on the life cycle costing, they save money and energy.

Inject printer consumes 90% less energy than a laser printer.

Use it as default!

• Tip 6 - Set up a maintenance schedule

• Tip 8 - Go paperless

Print only when necessary. Extra tip: Add any documents you want to share with others to a shared drive instead of printing out a copy!
