Energy Healthcheck
With an energy audit you could start to save energy and costs in just one day.
Performing an energy audit gives us an insight into your business and property, to identify the energy saving measures most suitable to you.
The first crucial step towards reducing the energy consumption of your business is to know how much you’re currently using, and where it’s being used. Once we know this, we can help you make informed decisions about the best ways to reduce your energy use and which energy efficiency measures would be appropriate for your business.
Our Energy Audit will include:
- Analysing energy usage to identify long and short term patterns affecting your bills.
- Speaking to employees to build a picture of their behavioural patterns
- Outlining your action plan through an audit and review of your bills
- Specific implementation costs and payback times, along with environmental and marketing benefits.
An energy audit will provide you with goals for improvement, organising and analysing your energy-related activity, with the key objective of saving costs.
As part of an energy audit, we can also advise you about low carbon technologies which may be beneficial for your building and business. These could include the following:
- Smart Meters – these can read and transmit data to your energy supplier and provide you with accurate real-time information on energy consumption. Trials by the Carbon Trust showed that small and medium sized businesses saved on average 12% through a combination of energy saving programmes and installation of smart meters.
- Insulation – All forms of insulation will help to significantly cut your heating costs and reduce your carbon footprint. We can give advice on how best to insulate your building and offer a range of insulation products.
- Energy Efficient Lighting – Low energy lighting uses 80-90% less energy than conventional tungsten lighting, and can last up to 10 times longer. Fitting low energy lighting is simple, helps the environment and should reduce your lighting bills.
