Go Green: Top 3 Energy-Efficient Elevator Upgrades

Reducing energy consumption is a goal for every modern building. Your elevator system can be a key part of that effort. One of the most effective upgrades is installing a regenerative drive, which captures energy generated during braking and returns it to the building's power grid. Another is switching to LED lighting in the cabin and fixtures, which uses significantly less power than traditional bulbs. Finally, upgrading to a modern, destination-based control system optimizes elevator trips, reducing the number of starts and stops and thus saving energy. These green upgrades can lead to substantial cost savings and a more sustainable property.
