Awareness campaigns to reduce energy consumption.
Background
The rapid urbanization growth, accompanied by the population increase, has
imposed economic burdens and more responsibilities on the municipality on a daily
basis, due to the increased demand for services and the need to create new job
opportunities that go along with the municipality's sustainable vision through its
awareness- raising role.
The municipality’s role should be supportive to its citizens in reducing their energy
consumption bills and increase their living standards, thus contributing in securing a
higher income for them and investing in economy.
Besides, the awareness campaigns can influence the customer consumption patterns
and can modify the purchasing behaviour towards more energy efficient products.
Undoubtedly, the municipality can use licensed ads and publish them at different
times and has the initiative and ability to raise awareness in collaboration with
various governmental parties and community sectors, targeting the following
buildings:
- Hospital and Health Centre;
- Schools, Institutes and Universities;
- Water supply;
- Governmental buildings;
- Mosques and churches;
- Commercial sector;
- Private Hospitals;
- Private Universities;
- Banks;
- Communication;
- Hotels;
- Others;
