IBERSOL • 2023 Integrated Management Report

ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE ACTION • Facilities and equipment Maintenance and Cleaning Plan • Investment in better energy efficiency rates when purchasing new equipment for new units, or to replace obsolete material. • Installation of energy saving material and equipment: - equipment activation timers (namely for exhaust machines and outdoor lighting); - variable speed drives on fume extraction motors (Springx system); - led lightbulbs (replacing in existing installations, and applying to new installations); - indoor light sensors (eg: warehouses, bathrooms, changing rooms) and for outdoors (outdoor lighting regulators); - thermal and photovoltaic solar panels; - automatic water taps; - flow regulators for hand-washing taps (allowing for a flow reduc- tion of over 50%); - cisterns with dual flush mechanisms and smaller tanks; - heat pumps for domestic hot water production; - chargers for electric vehicles. • Temperature adjustment for air conditioning: maximum 18ºC in the winter and 25ºC in the summer. • Opening control for equipment (cooling and heating) and for facili- ties. • Management of the opening and closing of window shutters to op- timise the interior temperature in restaurants. • Reducing the flow rate of taps to minimise water waste. • In stores with an outdoor garden, optimisation of watering opera- tions: - timing and duration of watering; - positioning and calibra- tion of watering devices; - choice of plants that need less watering. 190
