In an online presentation, Stadtwerke Gießen explains how the indoor climate influences energy consumption and what savings can be made as a result.
Unprecedented energy prices are forcing many people to economise for cost reasons alone. This applies to all energy applications, but of course especially to heating. After all, heating and hot water account for around 80 per cent of the energy required in a typical household. With this in mind, it makes perfect sense to pull out all the stops and reduce heating energy consumption. Martin Lorenz, energy consultant at Stadtwerke Gießen (SWG), will explain how this can be achieved and why saving energy does not necessarily mean sacrificing comfort in an online lecture on 25 October - an event from the "Energy Knowledge on Tuesday" series, which SWG has launched this year.
What will it be about this time?
The indoor climate plays a crucial role when it comes to heating energy consumption. It therefore makes sense to take a closer look at its various aspects - humidity and temperature. In fact, an average four-person household produces around twelve litres of water vapour every day. It is important to get rid of this regularly. This is because excessive humidity causes various problems. One of them is high heating costs. Consequently, Martin Lorenz takes a particularly close look at the topic of ventilation and what needs to be considered. So much in advance: old habits persist here, and Martin Lorenz also sheds light on their harmful effects in his presentation.
In the second part, the SWG expert focusses on room temperature. Which is ideal where? What is the relationship between temperature and energy consumption? And how can a room be heated using as little energy as possible? Martin Lorenz addresses these and many other questions on the subject of "efficient heating" in detail.
If you would like to watch the lecture on 25 October at 5:30 pm on your own computer, tablet or smartphone, please register by 23 October at energieberatung@stadtwerke-giessen.de. SWG will send out a participation link in good time before the event.
