CableApp and sustainability

The environment and energy savings must be a priority in every installation. In a moment in which energy prices are soaring across the world and taking care of the environment is a must, counting on tools that help you calculate your energy savings and the reduction in CO₂ emissions is key.

Prysmian Group’s CableApp not only calculates the size of the cable for your installation, but it also calculates the total savings on the energy bill and annual CO₂ emissions.

Moreover, CableApp also advises a larger cross-section, translating into less energy waste (or loss). Using larger cross-sections can be profitable and ecological at the same time! “This message is not new, the cross-section increases with respect to those obtained technically are a great deal, especially in these times of soaring electricity rates. We know that cutting the energy lost in the form of heat in the lines has been very profitable and is especially significant in small cable sizes” – Lisardo Recio, Product Manager Prysmian Group Spain.
