agree  Andrzej Mierzejewski: IMO najlepsze w podanym kontekście, ale jest problem, że autor używa wyrazu "redukcja" w objaśnieniu, więc Sz. Tłumaczka powinna coś z tym zrobić.

implementing energy system shutdown / temperature setback


Explanation:
On top of lighting and software power management, the district also implemented an energy system shutdown program for summer, winter and other break periods - https://www.vsb.bc.ca/district-news/vsb-ranks-top-ten-bc-hyd...

-------

Adopt a weekend and vacation energy shutdown program, including thermostats, computers, kitchen equipment, water heaters, water fountains - http://www.greenschools.net/downloads/SequoyahSchoolSustaina...

----

Is there night set back for unoccupied hours?
Use of night set back can lead to significant energy savings and is easy to implement in buildings. During unoccupied hours, the system should be set back so that the system does not continue to operate. - http://buildingretuning.pnnl.gov/documents/pnnl_sa_85194.pdf

neutral  Andrzej Mierzejewski: Jak wynika z kontekstu, w budynku zainstalowane są różne systemy pobierające energię, a (chyba) ani jeden generujący energię, więc "energy system shutdown" może byc niezrozumiałe.
