Counseling services by target group
Households
Energy-efficient home delivery – what does it mean?
Up to 40–60% of the energy consumption of a small house is spent on heating the premises. Annually, about 20–30% of the energy is used for heating domestic water, and about 20–30% for utility electricity. In addition to the user’s actions, these relationships are also significantly affected by the structure of the house and the way ventilation is implemented. When aiming for energy savings, it is best to primarily aim for solutions that reduce the need for energy.
Housing company
Together towards an energy-efficient building society!
Housing association advice is designed to help housing associations in planning and carrying out energy renovations. The website contains tips for board members, information on energy grants, and instructions and help for performing a ton inspection.
Company
A company’s competitive advantage can sometimes be built entirely on cost efficiency, which is achieved through energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy. At the beginning of August 2022, the current year’s stock exchange electricity hourly price was a record, around €1070 per MWh. Typically, during the dead of winter and during the worst frosts, on weekday mornings, the highest exchange electricity prices normally prevail.
Municipality
Sustainable and renewable solutions for heat production, heat pumps, solar panels, energy-efficient structures and solutions, charging points for electric cars. Today, municipalities have a lot of sustainable renewal on their to-do list. Ecopartners helps and brings municipalities together in this activity.

A new era of energy use – Energy Saving Week
In the fall, the national Energy Saving Week is celebrated again!
In the new age of energy use, energy saving is more and more timely electricity use and shifting consumption.
An energy-smart user monitors consumption and the price of electricity – let’s leave unnecessary energy use in history together!

Energy saving at home – Tampereen Energia
Saving lightens the carbon footprint. The more energy is needed, the more rationally it should be used. Both each of us and our common environment benefit from energy efficiency and energy saving. Smart choices in housing, food and movement save natural resources and reduce your carbon footprint. At the same time, you enjoy more moderate living costs.
When enough of us take small actions, a big impact is made!

Applications for monitoring the price of electricity
Among other things, you can use these mobile apps to track the up-to-date price of electricity every hour:
Sähköseuranta.fi
Hourly rate application (Fingrid)
By scheduling electricity consumption away from peak hours, you can save as a user of exchange electricity. Even with a fixed-price electricity contract, it is good to avoid times when electricity is consumed the most in society. By making consumption more flexible, you reduce the environmental impact of energy production and the risk of electricity shortages, as well as improve Finland’s energy self-sufficiency and security of supply.
An energy consultant's sweaty afternoon
In the video, the guys you know from Kummeli in an energy consulting situation.
The electricity bill raises sweat in Yli-Vattila, and the electricity company doesn’t find fault with the bill – but with the consumption. Can Yli-Vattila find an explanation for the large consumption? How often does an Energy Advisor take off his coat? Does Yli-Vattila’s watch get wet in the shower? And will Yli-Vattila experience enlightenment at the end of the sweaty afternoon?
