This is understandable, because a slight reduction in energy use is a big cost savings, “- said Kohl Zsuzsanna quality management expert to Profit & Market

This market compulsion is growing stronger because of the constraints of raw materials, services and mainly by a sharp increase in energy prices. Most of the companies calculate to further increase in energy prices, according to Policy Agenda-Ipsos survey. 82 percent of the business leaders expect an increase in energy prices in the next six months, 29 percent of them expect a significant price increase.
