Systematic review of studies on energy efficiency in hospitals
Abstract
As a result of the introduction of a new technological development into our lives every day, the use of energy consumption is increasing. Considering that most of the electricity still used is produced from fossil fuels, it is a fact that we should not forget that we need to save on energy consumption. Health institutions are institutions where intensive technology is used and uninterrupted service is provided. For this reason, it is one of the areas where energy-saving studies should be implemented as a priority. Conducting studies on this subject and implementing practices in line with the results of the study will provide energy savings. It is more important to carry out these studies in countries dependent on foreign energy. For this reason, in this study, it is aimed to make a systematic review of the studies conducted in Türkiye or at least one of the authors is Turkish and the studies on energy efficiency in hospitals. This study summarizes which studies have been conducted on this topic, the areas of focus, the methods used and the results of the studies. It is thought that this study will provide information to researchers working on the subject.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a systematic review. Its evidence level is 1 of 5 (Highest · pooled evidence). Pooled evidence from several studies sits at the top of the evidence pyramid.
