Increased energy efficiency in building services and industrial plant engineering
Atel Eco Services AG provides services for the increased energy-efficient design, planning, construction and operation of building services and plants. The new company offers sustainability strategies, energy checks, energy concepts, sustainable building services planning, financing of energy-efficient systems, operations optimisation and technical facility management solutions. Atel Eco Services implements both ground-breaking projects employing state-of-the-art technologies (the highest level of energy efficiency with the lowest levels of CO2 emissions), what are known as beacon projects, as well as projects with a widespread impact such as energy checks or energy optimisation. Using the services of Atel Eco Services AG, customers can reduce their energy costs and finance energy-efficient systems with the aid of facility contracting. Atel Eco Services sees a high market potential not only with new buildings, but in particular also with existing buildings. The new company has set itself the objective of providing contributions to the increase of energy efficiency and the reduction of CO2 emissions and hence to the achievement of the defined climate targets.
Atel Eco Services implements projects that meet high requirements Projects that are implemented by Atel Eco Services meet the very highest requirements in terms of energy efficiency. These include, for example, those of the "SIA Effizienzpfad Energie" (The Efficiency Path Energy guideline from the Swiss Engineers and Architects Association, SIA), an instrument to aid energy-efficient construction, or the MINERGIE-P Standard, a building concept aimed at achieving the lowest possible consumption of energy.
