Energy-efficient light bulbs and tubes are widely used in the Force. Stickers promoting energy saving were displayed at conspicuous places within Force premises to enhance staff awareness of energy conservation. Unnecessary energy consumption was avoided through a series of housekeeping measures such as dividing office areas into separate lighting control zones, reducing water temperature for gas boilers, turning off additional chillers during winter, and shortening the operation hours of lifts. Staff were reminded to switch off lights and air-conditioners when they left the office, and to turn off all electrical equipment when not in use. Routine spot checks on lighting and air conditioners were conducted outside office hours. |
