Special importance had been given by the management of CySEC, to the establishment of an energy saving policy. Therefore, in 2013, a campaign to inform the employees began. With the aim of promoting the energy consciousness to the staff, the CySEC has issued a circular on the 22nd of July 2013, providing useful advice in relation to the saving of electric power at home and at the work place. At the same time, informative material and smart clips and pictures have been promoted to the staff, which carry, in a pleasant way, the message that saving energy and the protection of the environment improves the quality of our life and our daily routine.
Furthermore, the CySEC follows all the proposed measures/directives issued by the Energy Service of the Ministry of Energy, Commerce, Industry and Tourism and by the Energy Foundation of Cyprus. Some of the measures applied are (a) the lighting time switches, which turn on automatically when movement has been detected and switch off automatically, after the predetermined time period and (b) the adjusting level of light in order to use the desired amount of light for the various activities of the users of the place (e.g. there are special switches which turn on only half of the lights in the corridors).
Furthermore, an Officer of CySEC participates in the annual conference organised by the Cyprus Energy Foundation, and also in the various meetings that take place during the year and aim to the exchange of views and the provision of information in relation to the new energy saving systems and the provision of advice for the saving and proper use of energy.
The CySEC attempts to promote the various Social Responsibility Actions through publications on its website, in order to encourage and raise the awareness of other organisations on this issue.
