The largest household energy consumption comes from providing heating and preparing domestic hot water: more than 2/3 of the energy in our homes is used for this purpose. Given that an old private power station has a low efficiency, which leads to higher consumption, replacing it with a condensing plant is one of the most indicated measures to reduce heating costs.

The survey also confirms that Romanians are beginning to realize this and the interest in purchasing a new station being relatively high. About 15% of the respondents who are gas users stated that they intend to buy a new thermal power plant in 2023. 

At the same time, 28% of private power stations in use are older than ten years, so they consume more gas than new ones, in condensation, but also more electricity for their actual operation.  

The findings of the survey are confirmed by the results achieved by heating solution E.ON Life, which recorded 34% higher sales between 2020 and 2022.

The survey shows that 80% of those who opted for the company’s efficient heating solution are satisfied with the decision made, firstly because of the high quality of the station and, secondly, because of the low consumption and saving money on gas bills.

According to calculations made by the company, the consumption of an old gas station for heating and hot water reaches on average some 12,000 kWh per year, and the annual utility bill is RON3,720. A new condensing station has an efficiency of 108%, which can bring consumption savings of up to 30%, i.e. 3,600 kWh, so the annual savings would exceed RON1,000.
