For this reason, many products, services, and activities, offered by Enel, to raise awareness about energy conservation are addressed to business customers as the industrial system is responsible for the demand for much of the total energy consumed in a country. 

Even abroad the Group offers important actions in the same direction. In Brazil for example, Endesa provided numerous consultancies for the implementation of programs on energy conservation and efficient lighting, projects for automating electric and thermal plants in order to better control consumption and to monitor the efficiency of electric motors.

In this regard, the Company also develops technologies and services aimed at reducing the energy consumption of cities, for example in the area of street lighting. In February 2009, Enel Sole – the Italian leader in this field – launched Archilede on the market. This is an innovative lighting system based on LED (light-emitting diode) technology, which presents numerous advantages in terms of consumption, the environmental impact of component disposal, the quality of the light emitted, and the degree of dispersion of the upward flow, which is nil and thus also contributes to policies for reducing light pollution.
