Energy Conservation Measures

Energy Conservation

We combine engineering expertise with energy-efficient products and services to help your building work smarter, not harder.

What is Energy Conservation?

Energy conservation is often used synonymously with energy efficiency. While energy efficiency is the implementation of solutions and equipment that require less energy, energy conservation is the process of using less energy. Reducing energy use in larger buildings requires a combination of business acumen, engineering expertise and data-driven insights to implement solutions that meet your goals. Trane provides solutions and services that address both to create a well-rounded decarbonization strategy.

Why is Energy Conservation Important?

Energy conservation is essential for creating more operational efficiency, higher-functioning building systems and healthier indoor environments for your people. When you consume less energy, you give your infrastructure a chance to breathe and catch up with your business. The end result is a more resilient, sustainable building.

One of the most common ways to conserve energy is using only what you need. By optimizing when and where your energy goes, you can make your building more comfortable for those inside and ultimately reduce your dependence on the utility grid. This means happier people and less utility costs each month.

From a business perspective, conservation is a responsible, cost-effective way to maximize savings and support other areas of your operation that need it most. Sustainability measures also help you comply with local energy standards and meet your ESG goals as regulations evolve.

In addition, digital tools and analytics technology are advancing at record pace, making it easier to proactively collect, assess and optimize your energy performance in real-time. This means businesses can feel more confident in energy conservation as a viable business asset. There is no one-size-fits-all solution, and finding what works best for you is where we come in.
