From clever to digital!

The range of energy efficiency

If you are successful with low-investment measures, rely on classic measures such as energy optimization of the compressed air system or other mature technologies, or on data-supported optimization via software solutions, digital sensors and controls, apply in this category.

Examples of measures:

  • Energy-efficient cross-sectional technologies
  • Efficient heat and cold generation
  • Process optimisation
  • Internal waste heat utilisation and heat recovery
  • Digitalization and digital transformation
  • Energy management systems
  • Software solutions (e.g. using AI and data analysis)
  • Smart automation solutions
  • Measurement, control and sensor technology
  • Intelligent sensor technology

For individual questions regarding your application, you can contact the Energy Efficiency Award team at any time via  or by calling (030) 66 777-700. We will be happy to advise you!
