ENERGY SAVING TIPS

Lifts and Escalators

  • Encourage using the stairs (for one or two floors up or down) rather than taking the lift.
  • Shut down some of the lifts and escalators during non-peak hours.
  • Switch off the lighting and ventilation fan inside the lift car when the lift is in standby/idle mode.
  • In case of a bank of escalators (e.g. in public transport station), the traveling direction can be adjusted to suit the flow pattern of passenger traffic.
  • Monitor equipment operation by carrying out energy audit for the equipment continuously.
