Abstract

The knowledge of what is being consumed in energy terms through some registration, helps to make decisions about the company and encourages to give viability to new projects in relation to savings and cost-benefit. To this end, through information such as invoices, average distance travelled and costs, the energy consumption involved in carrying out the activity corresponding to the movement of vehicles from the luxury fleet of the intermunicipal transport company Cooperativa de motorists del Huila and Caquetá Ltda. - Coomotor was known. Then, with the characteristics of the luxury fleet and based on the result obtained from the accumulated energy, it was possible to establish appropriate guidelines and techniques to propose an efficient driving proposal; for which, each driver must know and implement. Fuel consumption savings were estimated on average (5-20) % with the implementation of the proposal, implemented correctly. Other advantages were also noted in addition to energy efficiency such as reduced environmental pollution, driving comfort and reduced road risks, as the driver takes a prevention and anticipation behavior when driving.
