What’s the likelihood of a quick turnaround to implement energy efficient technologies?

I spoke to a client who has approached us to reduce their energy consumption.

They’ve undergone ESOS for legislation purposes and investigated energy reduction measures, but haven’t made much progress.

Energy efficiency drives taking too long to implement?

They’re doing little or no monitoring to understand their energy usage and conceded that an energy efficiency drive wasn’t likely to happen quickly.

Following a presentation on (EEaaS) Energy Efficiency as a Service, the client now understands that having a company manage, invest and install energy efficient technology upgrades is the key to a quick ROI.

I’m finding that many businesses want to reduce energy use and improve their sustainability credentials quickly – and even more so with the current energy crisis.

Experience with rolling out ‘Project’ routes requires high capital expenditure as energy efficient technologies typically have a higher upfront capital cost. The cost savings that result from installing these are generally realised over a number of years. This means that customers do not typically see the financial benefits immediately and this can discourage capital investment.

Optimise energy savings with Energy Efficiency as a Service

But by analysing the energy performance across a customer’s site to optimise the energy savings, the EEaaS model can be rolled out within four months from initial site survey to measurement and verification of the energy savings. This ensures that customers receive immediate and tangible energy savings with the quickest return on investment (ROI).

How long has your company been thinking about reducing their energy consumption, costs and carbon? What does it take?
