Is it possible to fill in the energy conservation information requirement yourself?
Absolutely!
You know: Companies that consume more than 50,000 kWh of electricity or 25,000 m³ of gas annually are required to comply with the energy conservation information requirement. If you are considering taking on this responsibility yourself, read on.
Many companies are unsure whether to handle the registration for the energy conservation information requirement themselves or outsource it to an outside party. This process is time consuming; completing it can sometimes take 10 – 20 hours and are often technical in nature.
By comparison, filling out an average Energy Conservation Information Obligation application takes as much time as a plane ride to Curacao, 10 hours. At the same time, you can also enjoy a James Bond movie marathon, with titles such as Casino Royale, Skyfall, Spectre, GoldenEye, The Spy Who Loved Me, Goldfinger, The World Is Not Enough, Quantum of Solace, Die Another Day, together accounting for about 20 hours of movie fun.”

Are you looking for information about your hr boiler about ventilation, for example? Proper product specifications can often be found on the brand’s site. So this can be time-consuming. Especially if you have a lot of equipment.
Each measure additionally indicates whether it can be taken at an independent or natural moment.
An “Independent Moment” means that a measure is profitable at any time. This means that implementation of this measure must take place within a year to be profitable.
A “Natural Moment,” on the other hand, indicates a measure that is primarily profitable during a renovation or remodeling project. This means that you can wait to implement this measure until you have plans for a renovation or remodeling project, provided it takes place within five years.
