Building inspected
In the last five years, Swiss Post has cut energy consumption and costs in eight large buildings in collaboration with energo: electricity consumption has been reduced by almost 13 million kilowatt hours, heat requirements by almost 20 million kilowatt hours and water consumption by 1,000 m3. There are clear economic benefits: the energo subscription costs of 0.5 million francs compare with an energy cost reduction of 3.5 million francs.
Swiss Post is working to reduce heating, air-conditioning, electricity and water costs in all buildings. By the end of 2013, it had inspected 1,088 buildings for their energy efficiency. The measures implemented achieved substantial cost and energy savings. CO2 emissions were also reduced by 300 tonnes in 2013.
