What is an energy screening?
Energy-intensive processes, as they occur in the manufacturing industry, mean high costs. Energy screening is an economic analysis of a company’s energy. The energy screening reveals whether and what improvements can be achieved through software-supported energy management in the business. It captures and thoroughly examines all relevant technical and economic aspects of a company’s energy.
The result is a detailed report on the potential savings that can be achieved with the ifesca.ENERGY® energy management system in the short, medium or long term.

Why is energy-saving management prudent?
Companies consume an above-average amount of electricity – industry, commerce, trade and service providers account for approximately 70% of Germany’s total electricity consumption. There are several reasons for companies to operate as energy-efficiently as possible. The most obvious reason is financial – especially as rising energy prices affect operating costs. At the same time, energy-saving management is an important hallmark for sustainable companies. It stands for climate protection and future-oriented action, even in the eyes of customers. Energy savings are therefore relevant not only for sustainability but also for a company’s image.
An energy screening by ifesca shows how you can benefit from this potential.
