Retrofitting Strategy Upgrade of lift control platform with energy efficiency features
Replace the electromechanical relays control with software- and microprocessor-based controls with in-cab sensors automatic detection to switch lift into standby mode. It enables the lift switch to idle or sleep mode, turning off the lights, ventilation and video screen when the lift is not in use. The lift will return to normal when activated again by passenger call. The microprocessor-based controls release less heat and the low voltage operation definitely saves energy. 
Consideration
 
Estimated Saving

kW_LIFT * MLIFT * LFLIFT * %SAVE * OPHR,yr

Assume %SAVE = 20% for designation control, 30% for optimisation or provided by the manufacturer

Where  LFLIFT = 0.35

OPHR,yr = hr/day*day/wk*52
