Businesses : how to cope with rising electricity costs ?

Since February 1st, 2024, the electricity bills for businesses have increased by approximately 10%. This rise is attributed to the gradual phasing out of the tariff shield implemented by the Government in October 2021.

The energy price shield was initially set to end in December 2023. As a result, the final consumption tax on electricity (TICFE) will gradually increase starting in February 2024 to €21, with a return to normal expected by February 2025. This increase has a significant impact on businesses' finances. For one in five companies, energy has become the largest expense.

Cool roofing is a technology that is becoming increasingly recognized for addressing the energy and climate crisis.

This high-albedo coating applied to roofs is designed to enhance the energy performance of your building. With its reflective effect, the roof absorbs less heat, reducing your air conditioning costs.Cool roofing has a significant economic impact, potentially saving up to 30% on your annual air conditioning bills.

By combating roof overheating on a larger scale, cool roofing helps reduce Urban Heat Islands (UHI) and maintains cooler indoor temperatures within buildings. This improves thermal comfort during the summer.

While reducing your carbon footprint, this technology will help you better manage the rising costs of electricity.
