Has your business taken action to reduce energy consumption in 2016?
Leisure Parks, Colleges, Retailers, Hotels, Printers, Manufacturers, Plastic Moulders, Engineering Companies, Professional Service Firms, Bus Companies, a Residential Care Organisation, Charities, Fitness Centres and a Local Authority all have. And, they are all looking forward to reduced energy costs this Christmas and boost to business profits as a result.
How have they achieved this boost to business profits? They have all taken action in 2016 to become more energy efficient. Through working in partnership with SMARTech energy, bespoke energy efficiency solutions have been designed to meet the unique challenges and opportunities each faced. For each client, energy saving opportunities of 30-50% were typically identified (with 82% being identified for one client).
9,186 tonnes of carbon reduction opportunities identified
Whilst energy savings give a real boost to business profits, implementing energy saving solutions also contribute to the much needed efforts to reduce carbon emissions. To date, 9,186 tonnes of carbon reduction opportunities have been identified by SMARTech energy for our clients. Improving energy efficiency can provide the biggest contribution to limiting global warming to no more than 2°C according to the Carbon Trust
Wiltshire based manufacturing company achieves carbon reduction target
Manuli Packaging are the largest stretch film producers in the world. Having diversified into bubble wrap production at their Wiltshire site in the mid-90s, followed by moving into packaging tape, their continuing growth now make Manuli Packaging one of the leading distributors of all film and tape products.
Manuli Packaging were struggling to meet their obligations under the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) Energy Efficiency Scheme and turned to SMARTech energy for help.
SMARTech energy installed Eniscope energy monitoring system at Manuli Packaging’s main production site in Wiltshire to generate minute by minute, real time analytics on energy usage and quality. Our in-house ESOS approved assessors also carried out an in-depth audit of the site. Combining the analytics from the energy monitoring with the data from the audits, we were able to understand HOW, WHEN and WHERE energy was being used and most importantly wasted.
The comprehensive energy reduction plan we produced identified a range of energy efficiency measures which gave:
- 35% energy savings
- 148 tonne carbon reduction
- 1 year pay back
Our case study here on SMARTech energy’s work with Manuli Packaging tells the story about our works to help reduce their energy consumption in more depth. If you want to take action in 2017 to reduce your organisation’s energy consumption, boost profits and cut carbon emissions, why not contact us to find out more about our Energy Management Surveys. As a Carbon Trust Accredited Supplier, we can also help most businesses access a 30% capital grant (up to a limit of £10,000) towards the cost of energy saving projects.
