In Spain, Energy Savings Certificates (Certificados de Ahorro Eenergético – CAE) are transforming the way manufacturers and clients drive the transition toward a more sustainable industry. Today, investing in energy-efficient equipment not only reduces energy consumption, but also enables companies to recover part of their initial investment.
For machinery manufacturers, this represents a clear competitive advantage: more attractive projects and faster purchasing decisions. However, there is a key requirement to access CAE incentives — energy savings must be measured, compared, and technically justified.
This is where Awayter adds value. With Awayter Connect, our IoT Platform, manufacturers can integrate energy measurement into their commercial strategy and provide clients with the necessary documentation to apply for CAE incentives.
This is made possible through the platform’s new CAE verification module, which allows you to:
- Establish the pre-project energy baseline.
- Monitor energy consumption in real time after implementation.
- Generate an objective before-and-after energy comparison.
- Create structured technical reports for audit purposes.
- Access traceable and exportable historical data.
- Centralize all information within a single digital platform.
Energy Savings Certificates (CAE) Case Study: Hotel Recovers 30% of Its Investment
A hotel replaced its 15-year-old HVAC system with a new high-efficiency solution. The objective was clear: reduce electricity consumption and CO₂ emissions, improve energy efficiency and guest comfort, and achieve a return on investment through Energy Savings Certificates (CAE).
With the Awayter Connect platform, the client activated energy monitoring before the upgrade to establish the consumption baseline. After installing the new system, a before-and-after energy comparison was carried out. The platform automatically generates:
- Comparative technical reports
- Structured calculations of verified energy savings
- Traceable and exportable documentation for audit purposes
As a result, the hotel reduced its energy bills and recovered 30% of the initial investment thanks to CAE incentives.
