Knowing where the energy goes
Cutting the bill rarely starts with a purchase: first you need to know what consumes energy, where and when. If servers restart for no reason or equipment fails too early, power quality is often to blame.
SADIS, a Moroccan company with its registered office in Laâyoune and an operational office in Casablanca, carries out this energy assessment and then does the work.
Reading the bill line by line
Before making any proposal, we read your bills and survey consumption. Three concepts come up almost every time.
- Contracted capacity Too high, and you pay for unused capacity; too low, and you incur overruns. The right value is derived from measured power demand.
- Peak hours Depending on the contract, energy costs more at certain times: shifting forklift charging or a compressor reduces the cost, not the consumption.
- Reactive energy Motors, compressors and old ballasts degrade the power factor. A suitable capacitor bank often removes this line from the bill.
Your finance department gets a bill it can understand and a list of points to check on site.
Metering by zone or by use
The main meter tells you how much you consume, not who consumes it. Sub-meters fitted on the switchboard feeders isolate lighting, air conditioning, the workshop, the cold room or the server room.
The initial survey serves as the baseline for measuring the effect of the work. Monthly tracking then reveals drift, such as an air conditioner running at night, and an alert notifies the person in charge when a zone exceeds its usual consumption.
Measurements are sent over the company network; any missing cabling is handled in the same project, together with network infrastructure and low-voltage systems.
Protecting equipment
Consuming less is not enough if the power quality is poor. A micro-outage can restart a server, freeze a till or stop a PLC. Voltage dips and surges, when large motors start or during a storm, wear out electronics prematurely. Some equipment also interferes with nearby devices.
Once the measurements have been taken, we protect sensitive equipment and install UPS units sized to the power, runtime and level of protection required, with batteries tested regularly. Monitoring of workstations and servers falls under IT asset maintenance.
LED lighting and automation
Lighting is often the first project: the gain can be measured and the work causes little disruption. We install LED fittings suited to offices, warehouses or workshops, and presence detectors in corridors, washrooms, meeting rooms and storage aisles. Outdoor lighting, signage and air conditioning are programmed to match your actual hours.
A plan ranked by payback
The survey and site visit lead to a costed action plan: each action states its cost, the expected savings and its payback period.
- No-cost adjustments Contracted capacity, peak hours, scheduling.
- Quick-payback investments LED, detectors, reactive energy compensation.
- Larger projects Equipment replacement or redesign of part of the installation, spread over several budgets.
You start with what pays back fastest, and the first savings fund the next steps.
Energy efficiency of buildings
In Morocco, Law 47-09 on energy efficiency sets the framework for this approach. The assessment helps you see where your buildings stand and keep a record of the actions taken.
This assessment does not replace the mandatory energy audit required by Decree No. 2-17-746, issued under Law 47-09. According to the Ministry of Energy Transition (page consulted in September 2026, in French), this audit is required every five years for establishments that consume more than 1,500 tonnes of oil equivalent (toe) per year in industry, or more than 500 toe per year in the tertiary sector. It is carried out by approved energy audit bodies, whose list is published by the Moroccan Agency for Energy Efficiency (AMEE). We do not provide legal advice: check your situation with the AMEE.
Measured savings
After the work, we compare consumption with the initial survey, zone by zone, taking activity into account. The installed metering immediately flags any gain that is eroding.
The work ends with acceptance testing and documentation. Turnkey projects are covered by our 12-month warranty, with the manufacturer's warranty applying depending on the equipment. Under a maintenance contract, any request is acknowledged within 24 business hours.
A free assessment before any quote
- Initial discussion You describe your premises, your hours and your concerns: bills, failures, outages.
- Free on-site assessment Review of the bills, inspection of the switchboard, identification of uses and sensitive equipment.
- Costed proposal Action plan, scope and schedule. No work starts without a signed approval.
- Work and follow-up Implementation, measurement of savings, then maintenance if you wish.
A single point of contact handles electricity, the network and the equipment that depends on them, within the Infrastructure and Security Division.
