10 ways to save energy on lifts

Regenerative Drives

Capture energy generated during the elevator’s descent and feed it back into the building’s electrical system.

Energy Recovery

Use energy recovery systems that harvest energy when the lifts is generating energy and feed it back when the lift is consuming energy.

LED Lighting

Use LED lighting in the elevator cabin and for indicator lights, as LEDs are much more energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan compared to traditional lighting.

Energy-Efficient Motors

Upgrade to high-efficiency motors that consume less power while maintaining performance.

Standby Mode

Implement a standby mode for lights, ventilation, and displays when the elevator is not in use, reducing energy consumption during idle times.

Group Control Systems

Use intelligent group control systems to manage multiple elevators, optimizing the number of trips and reducing unnecessary stops.

Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs)

Utilize VFDs to control motor speed and torque, providing smooth acceleration and deceleration, which conserves energy.

Destination Dispatch Systems

Destination dispatch systems are computer-controlled systems that optimize elevator routes. These systems can reduce the number of unnecessary stops that an elevator makes, which can save energy.

Predictive Maintenance

Implement predictive maintenance to keep elevators running efficiently and prevent energy waste due to malfunctioning components.

Modernisation of Old Systems

Upgrade or replace outdated lift systems with modern, energy-efficient technologies to ensure optimal energy use.
