Cooking and refrigeration are both energy-intensive processes. An oven left on idle is expensive. Turn on equipment only when it’s needed during setup.
Maintaining your appliances is key. A refrigerator with damaged seals or a dusty condenser can consume up to 30% more. Descale your machines. Check your gas burners.
LED lighting pays for itself in less than a year. Replace all your bulbs, including in the kitchen and in the storage rooms.
Night cut: Make sure everything that shouldn’t remain on is turned off (coffee maker, toaster, sign, non-critical ventilation).
In the kitchen, put on the lids! Boiling water with a lid consumes 4 times less energy.
Heat recovery: For large facilities, systems are available to recover heat from cold blocks or extraction for heating sanitary water.
