The goal of this document is to systematically estimate the electricity savings triggered by partial or complete renovations (replacement of the entire system) of an elevator system with a more efficient system.
Examples and Scenarios
Replacement of an elevator (rope) with a lifting height of 75 m (20 stops) and a payload of 1,500 kg (50% counterweight) with a new rope system with the same payload in a multi-family house with 54 apartments
125'550kWh
eligible kWh, accumulated over the measure's lifetime
Funding contributionCHF 6’278
Inputs: Beschleunigung der alten Anlage: 1.0 m/s²
Renovation of the drive system of an elevator (rope) with a lifting height of 25 m (7 stops) and a payload of 1,000 kg (50% counterweight) in an office building
9'428kWh
eligible kWh, accumulated over the measure's lifetime
Funding contributionCHF 471
Inputs: Motor Baujahr 2002 → IE4, Getriebe: Planetengetriebe → Direkt, FU (< 2005) → FU, Rekuperation: Nein → Ja
Requirements
Only measures that meet the requirements of the Energy Ordinance (SR 730.01; EnV) can be credited. The additional requirements for the technical characteristics and for the implementation of the measure are set out in Table 1.
| Efficiency (full refurbishment) | The new lift installation must achieve at least energy efficiency class A according to ISO 25745-2:2015 |
|---|---|
| Efficiency (partial refurbishment) | The best available technology of the refurbished components must be used, including: |
| Drive systems | |
| Travel control | |
| Door control | |
| Implementation | The replacement and commissioning of the new system must be carried out by a qualified specialist or company. |
Proof of compliance
Compliance with the requirements must be demonstrated by the following documents. The documents listed in Table 2 are an integral part of the proof of measure implementation.

Creditable Electricity Savings
The cumulative electricity savings result from the difference between electricity consumption before and after the measure, multiplied by the reduction factor (0.75) and the standard effective duration.
Annual Electricity Consumption
Annual electricity consumption is calculated based on the number of annual operating days, daily idle/standby consumption and operating consumption.
Betriebsmodus
Daily electricity consumption in operating mode is calculated based on the number of daily trips, the load factor and the average cycle consumption.
Leerlauf/Standby-Modus
Daily electricity consumption in idle/standby mode is calculated based on power consumption and time ratio in idle mode, after 5 minutes and after 30 minutes in standby mode.
