Energy to the limit: How to make smarter use in high demand times

Energy efficiency is crucial in different sectors. The incorporation of monitoring systems, together with technologies such as efficient lED lighting and equipment, can make a difference in consumption management

In a world where energy demand is constantly growing, Energy efficiency It becomes a fundamental pillar for sustainable development. It is not just about reducing consumption but about understanding how to consume better, optimize the use of available resources, minimize environmental impact and guarantee energy availability for future generations.

The Energy efficiency It is crucial in different sectors. In the industry, a plant that implements energy management technologies, can significantly reduce its operational costs. Let’s think about a hospital: Energy is a vital resource, where guaranteeing supply without interruptions is a matter of life or death. The incorporation of monitoring systems, together with technologies such as efficient lED lighting and equipment, can make a difference in consumption management. In commercial and residential buildings, automation solutions allow to optimize demand according to occupation and use.

What can be done in homes for energy efficiency?

Well, as we can all imagine, summer and winter stations are the most consumption. The selection of efficient appliances is key: technology equipment Inverter In air conditioning, washing machines, solar thermotanques and frosts with a ++ category they can reduce energy expenditure without sacrificing comfort. In addition, rational use, such as adjusting the air conditioning temperature at 24 ° C, contributes to significant savings.

According to data from Cammesa, in Argentina, electricity consumption is greater in summer than in winter, with an approximate 10% difference. In 2024, the country registered a consumption of 600 giga watts time in the warmest and 530 months in the coldest.

In terms of demand peaks, during heat waves, the electrical system reached historical records, which highlights the need for better planning and efficiency in consumption.

At the residential level, air conditioning represents one of the greatest demand factors, while, in industry and trade, lighting and cooling systems they have a significant weight in the total figure. Compared to countries in the region, we are within a similar range, although optimization remains a key challenge to improve the competitiveness and sustainability of the Argentine electrical system.

In Siemens, we work to develop technological solutions and devices that allow industries and infrastructure to improve the safety, availability and efficiency of energy supply. The combination of advanced software and hardware makes it possible to monitor consumption, detect anomalies and optimize processes; avoiding overloads and failures that could impact the productivity and safety of operations.

Today more than ever we must understand that energy efficiency is not just a responsibility of companies or government. Each individual action counts and impacts the system, the economy and quality of life of all of us. From the optimization of industrial processes to everyday decisions in our homes, the commitment to responsible consumption is an inevitable need. Only with conscience, knowledge, technology, innovation, policies and regulation aimed at guaranteeing a sustainable and accessible energy supply for all; We can have a more sustainable future accompanied by increasingly responsible consumption habits.
