9 b) Free one day consultancy on energy efficiency for small and medium sized companies - Individual on site consulting on electricity and heat consumption - Report with recommendations - Budget for 50 cases - Net value of 800 per case Results so far: up to 20 t of CO 2 can be avoided per firm through measures like optimisation of lighting and cooling; annual savings of around 6.000

10 c) Information events on energy efficiency in companies - lighting - cooling d) Pilot project: Improvement of energy efficiency in companies with many shops, e.g. bakeries Goal: improvement of energy efficiency not only in production sites, but also in shops
