Enel X, the Enel Group company specialising in energy solutions, has concluded an efficiency and modernisation package for the lighting of 57 Oi buildings across Rio de Janeiro and Ceará. In total, around 62,000 lighting points were replaced by LED technology in the beneficiary buildings, which will allow for energy savings of about 400 MWh/month – a reduction of 56.5% in lighting consumption at the telecoms giant’s serviced buildings.
With the new structuring, the buildings will now save on energy bills and reduce maintenance costs. The monthly saving is around R$220,000. In addition to the economic benefits, the new system brings more comfort to the professionals working in the units.
Enel X’s Energy Efficiency service focuses on responsible energy consumption and improving electrical installations, contributing to the adoption of intelligent and economical practices in the use of electricity.
