Time to step up performance-based energy efficiency measurement and verificat...Leonardo ENERGY
How can you know for sure the energy you’ve saved through your building renovation? The answer is that you can’t! But, by measuring energy consumption and taking account of other factors, such as the weather and building occupancy, you can make a much better estimate than by simply relying on installers’ claims of effectiveness. This is well understood in industry, where contracts for energy efficiency projects are routinely set up to reward energy service companies for the savings made, based on measurement and verification protocols such as IPMVP. This shifts much of the technical risk of underperformance onto the energy service contractor, aligning incentives and driving better performance. Policy makers in the US have begun to apply these principles to utility-delivered energy efficiency programmes in the buildings sector as part of efforts to drive up performance and provide better value for money for bill payers. The EU now has the opportunity to follow suit.
This program provides financial incentives for businesses to install energy efficient technology during new construction or equipment upgrades.

Consistent toolbox talks are critical for maintaining workplace safety, as they provide regular opportunities to address specific hazards and reinforce safe practices.
These brief, focused sessions ensure that safety is a continual conversation rather than a one-time event, which helps keep safety protocols fresh in employees' minds. Studies have shown that shorter, more frequent training sessions are more effective for retention and behavior change compared to longer, infrequent sessions.
Engaging workers regularly, toolbox talks promote a culture of safety, empower employees to voice concerns, and ultimately reduce the likelihood of accidents and injuries on site.
The traditional method of conducting safety talks with paper documents and lengthy meetings is not only time-consuming but also less effective. Manual tracking of attendance and compliance is prone to errors and inconsistencies, leading to gaps in safety communication and potential non-compliance with OSHA regulations. Switching to a digital solution like Safelyio offers significant advantages.
Safelyio automates the delivery and documentation of safety talks, ensuring consistency and accessibility. The microlearning approach breaks down complex safety protocols into manageable, bite-sized pieces, making it easier for employees to absorb and retain information.
This method minimizes disruptions to work schedules, eliminates the hassle of paperwork, and ensures that all safety communications are tracked and recorded accurately. Ultimately, using a digital platform like Safelyio enhances engagement, compliance, and overall safety performance on site. https://safelyio.com/

The integration embeds the Web Components in a way that they can be used naturally in XMLViews, like with standard UI5 controls, and can be bound with data binding. Learn how you can also make use of the Web Components base class in OpenUI5/SAPUI5 to also integrate your Web Components and get inspired by the solution to generate a custom UI5 library providing the Web Components control wrappers for the native ones.
