As noted in its statement, the challenging situation in the regional energy market requires prudent and responsible management of electricity consumption. At the same time, high temperatures during the summer lead to a significant increase in consumption, particularly due to the heavy use of air conditioners. To reduce the load on the power grid, prevent potential imbalances, and ensure an uninterrupted power supply, ÎCS Premier Energy urges Moldovan consumers to limit their electricity consumption as much as possible during peak hours. In particular, the company recommends that residential consumers reduce their use of air conditioners during peak hours, set the air conditioner to a moderate temperature, keep doors and windows closed while the air conditioner is running, and use washing machines, dryers, electric water heaters, and dishwashers between 11:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. whenever possible, and avoid plugging in multiple energy-intensive appliances at the same time. Citizens are also urged to turn off lights in unused rooms, unplug unnecessary electrical appliances, avoid leaving devices in standby mode, use the stairs instead of the elevator whenever possible, replace incandescent bulbs with LED bulbs, and install motion sensors and dimmers whenever possible. At the same time, local authorities are advised to reduce the use of air conditioners in administrative buildings, set air conditioning systems to a moderate temperature, use natural lighting whenever possible, turn off lights in unused rooms, unplug computers and electrical equipment from the power supply after programs have ended, reduce decorative lighting on buildings and monuments, turn off illuminated billboards when necessary, and optimize street and park lighting in a way that does not compromise public safety. At the same time, businesses are encouraged to reduce the energy consumption of cooling and ventilation systems during peak hours, shift energy-intensive processes to the period between 11:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. whenever possible, avoid running multiple energy-intensive machines simultaneously, turn off machinery not essential to the production process, shut down machines and equipment once a program has finished, use artificial lighting only where necessary, replace inefficient light bulbs with LED bulbs, install motion sensors in infrequently used rooms, and, if necessary, revise the work schedule to reduce consumption during peak hours. Premier Energy emphasizes that, given current regional conditions, every measure to reduce consumption is important. Responsible energy use contributes to the stable operation of the power grid and can lower electricity bills.
