Argentina. These days a campaign has been carried out to generate awareness about the use of energy, in which they seek that air conditioning systems are used at a temperature of 24ºC.
This campaign is led by the Secretariat of the Nation and began by filling the streets of the city of Posadas (Misiones) with posters to generate greater responsibility in energy consumption.
According to the local newspaper Territrio Digital, this campaign hopes to reduce fuel purchases abroad, and facilitate the removal of subsidies to the service and also try to avoid generating social unrest when the bills arrive with the new tariffs, exempt from subsidies.
Research carried out by government entities and educational institutions argues that using air conditioning at 24ºC, savings of between 40 and 50% can be achieved, compared to the use of equipment at 21ºC.
