A smarter way to save energy in Poland

4/22/2026 Gaspol, Poland

Energy efficiency is essential for achieving SHV Energy’s sustainability goals. In Poland, we conducted an energy audit at our LPG Terminal in Gdansk to help us understand where to focus our efforts

The audit identified quick, low-cost energy savings, as well as more expensive improvements. We then installed Sensorfact electricity monitoring sensors to help us track progress. The wireless sensors were placed on equipment, such as compressors and production lines, to measure our power consumption every 30 seconds.  

This real-time information was then analysed by algorithms and energy experts to pinpoint how energy was used and where it was wasted. By eliminating inefficiencies, such as standby consumption and compressed air leakages, we prevented over 161 tonnes of CO2e emissions in 2025. 

Importantly, the sensors also allowed us to compare energy performance before and after various changes such as upgrades to LED lighting, improvements to compressed air systems, and the installation of solar panels. 

We discovered that working smarter with data was a great way to save energy.
