Abstract

The industrial production of shisha (hookah) equipment is an energy-intensive process, particularly in its electrical power consumption. This article reviews and analyses strategies to increase electric energy efficiency in shisha manufacturing enterprises, covering measurement and monitoring, process and equipment optimisation, adoption of digital technologies and organisational management practices. Based on international research on manufacturing energy efficiency and industrial electricity use, the paper proposes a framework tailored to shisha-production factories that integrates technical, process and management measures for improved energy performance. The findings suggest that by implementing structured energy monitoring, upgrading key electrical systems (motors, drives, lighting), applying smart manufacturing tools and improving workforce energy awareness, manufacturing plants can reduce electrical energy consumption by 10-30 % while maintaining productivity.
