2. One of the main issues connected with CSR is the right use of resources, which are given to
us. The best way to reduce consumption of such resources is to look at the resources which
is used every day.
The electricity is one of the most needed
features in our everyday life. Today with
the help of new technologies we can
make our consumption in average 22%
lower. By such renovations need some
investment and time.
This presentation will be concentrated on some features that can reduce energy consumption at our university.
3. Smart windows
Windows provide our homes with light, warmth, and ventilation, but
they can also negatively impact at energy efficiency.
We can reduce energy costs by installing energy-efficient windows in
the university. If the budget is tight, energy efficiency improvements
to existing windows can also help.

4. ◉Adding storm windows can reduce air
leakage and improve comfort. Caulking
and weatherstripping can reduce air
leakage around windows. Use caulk for
stationary cracks, gaps, or joints less
than one-quarter-inch wide, and
weatherstripping for building
components that move, such as doors
and operable windows.
Smart windows
Window treatments or
coverings can reduce heat loss
in the winter and heat gain in
the summer. Most window
treatments, however, aren't
effective at reducing air leakage
or infiltration.
6. Traditional
Traditional incandescent bulbs use a lot of
energy to produce light and are no longer
manufactured.
◉ 90% of the energy is given off as heat
◉ That lost energy is money we are
throwing away
Newer energy-saving lightbulbs provide the
choices in colors and light levels you've
come to expect. The new lights are also
much more efficient -so they save you
money.
7. A+++ energy
efficient equipment
Energy efficient equipment is installed in our university but we also
have some old computers and projectors with bad energy efficient
rating. So it means that it enough space to work.

8. Smart bulbs/smart lighting
◉Smart electric bulbs is another story: Smart
bulbs offer a degree of control and interactivity
you just can't get with traditional bulbs, like
scheduled timers and remote control options.
◉They're also more convenient; it's easier to tap
on a smartphone screen than to get up and
trudge over to a wall switch.
◉Aside from keeping you out of the dark, most
of the bulbs listed here can be scheduled or
controlled remotely, which is great if you want to
save on energy costs or you often forget to turn
off the lights before leaving
9. Common examples of energy-efficient
business equipment include:
◉computers with sleep mode or power-down
mode
◉copiers with sleep mode and double-sided
copying
◉printers with sleep mode and double-sided
printing
Energy-efficient business equipment
serves a business’s needs while
consuming less energy than standard
equipment.
10. ◉However, energy-efficient equipment is not
limited to office fixtures like these. Options are
available for a variety of businesses, including
restaurants, construction companies, and auto
dealers.
◉During the selection of the equipment we can
guided by the EU energy consumption energy
scheme. The directive was implemented by several
other directives thus most white goods, light bulb
packaging and cars must have an EU Energy Label
clearly displayed when offered for sale or rent. The
energy efficiency of the appliance is rated in terms
of a set of energy efficiency classes from A to G on
the label, A being the most energy efficient, G the
least efficient.
12. The consumption of paper is important as
well.
With the help of new solutions in education we
can reduce the amount of paper usage by:
◉Delivering the electronic versions of all of
the books needed during the education
period.
◉Increasing the number of online lectures,
where students can make notes on the
computer, tablet, etc.
◉Implementing the electronic attestation and
passing exams with the help of the computer.
It can also make easier to check the exams
results.
13. Resources needed:
◉energy efficient equipment (TV’s,
projectors, computers, printers,
etc.)
◉ installation of smart windows
needs to use of material and
human resources.
◉smart bulbs (lighting)
◉intellectual resources (for
development of the e-learning
system
14. Conclusion: reducing the energy consumption
is not the only part of CSR, but here we can see
the trend and implement the solutions today.
The possible ways are clear but needs some
planning, investing and development.
