Accompanying institutions throughout the entire process<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Under the PEEM framework, Econoler was selected as sole contractor to accompany public building managers throughout the full journey, from diagnosis to implementation and long-term management.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

The mandate was threefold:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Support the identification and implementation of concrete energy efficiency measures;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Establish a structured Energy Management System (EMS) aligned with ISO 50001 principles;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Achieve at least 15% energy savings, while ensuring ownership, sustainability, and compliance with international best practices.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    An integrated approach to lasting performance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Econoler designed an integrated solution that combined technical depth, human engagement, and organizational transformation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Building capacity and ownership<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    First, Econoler worked closely with building managers through training workshops and exchange sessions, creating a shared understanding of energy efficiency challenges and opportunities. A participatory approach was used to foster commitment and long-term ownership.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Turning audits into action plans<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Second, detailed energy audits were conducted in all 13 buildings. These audits led to prioritized action plans, supported by technical and economic feasibility analyses.\u00a0Econoler\u00a0then supported beneficiaries during the implementation of selected measures, ensuring that recommendations translated into real-world results.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Embedding energy management for the long term<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Finally, to secure lasting impact, Econoler supported the deployment of Energy Management Systems. This included organizational diagnostics, the installation of monitoring tools (meters and software), the integration of energy criteria into procurement practices, and the development of communication and awareness plans. One building manager was accompanied through the process leading toward ISO 50001 certification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Beyond savings: changing how energy is managed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The project delivered tangible and measurable results across all supported sites. Beyond energy savings, it helped institutionalize energy management practices within public administrations, strengthening internal capacities and enabling continuous performance improvement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    \n

    From isolated actions to a structured approach<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    By linking audits, implementation support, and governance tools, the project demonstrated that energy efficiency in public buildings can move from isolated actions to a structured, sustainable approach.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Concrete results for public institutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    For the 13 public buildings involved, the benefits were both tangible and structural.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
