A compulsory energy audit for large businesses. Requires the assessment of energy use in buildings, industrial processes, and transport, identifying cost-effective energy-saving opportunities.

Deadlines for ESOS are every four years. Phase 3 of the scheme involved companies submitting their ESOS report in 2023.

OEM typically identifies savings between 10-30% for their customers.

Requires participants to report accurate energy consumption and carbon emissions data and be audit-ready.

Businesses should implement an energy reduction plan, set targets and monitor performance.

Mandatory for large undertakings with one of the following criteria: 250+ employees, annual turnover of £36m+, an annual balance sheet of £18m+

Renewables Obligation (RO), Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) and Contracts for Difference (CfD) are all green taxes on electricity built into the unit rate, known as ‘pass-through charges’.

The EII scheme provides up to 85% discount on these pass-through charges.

There are around 70 activities across manufacturing processes eligible for this scheme.

A Climate Change Levy (CCL) Exemption was introduced by the government to help businesses that provide any mineral or metal processes, compete with countries with lower energy costs and less green taxation.

Offers a 100% discount on the CCL, for the energy used in certain processes. The discount is applied to monthly energy invoices.

Allows eligible processes to recover CCL charges paid, going back 4 years.
This scheme can deliver an immediate cash boost to a business.

A CCA is a voluntary agreement between businesses and the Environment Agency.

The agreement outlines energy reduction targets, aimed at reducing carbon emissions and non-renewable energy consumption.

In return participating organisations receive a discount of up to 90% on the Climate Change Levy (CCL). The discount is applied directly to energy bills and is deducted from your CCL charges.

Our carbon reporting partner provides a complete management solution that offers emission measurement, monitoring and reporting.

The reporting spans multiple areas of your business, providing a transparent view of your emissions data across the whole supply chain including gas, electricity, and fuel use, flight data, resource consumption (paper, toner, electronics), and waste streams.

The solution allows your business to track its sustainability performance against defined targets and drives a return on investment for energy efficiency projects.

BMS technology is a computer-based control system comprised of hardware installed in buildings combined with a software solution to allow the automated management, control, and monitoring of equipment.

This equipment includes heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, lighting, power systems, fire systems, and security systems.

The technology typically achieves a 40% saving of a building’s energy usage. If lighting is included this saving approaches 70%.

Insulating your building is an effective method to reduce your heat loss.

Replacing or installing insulating materials will involve addressing the following areas; roof, cavity wall, lagging water tanks, and pipes, under floorboards, draught-proofing.

Relatively low-cost insulation solutions can deliver a quick return on investment by reducing the cost of heating.

Through our EV partner, we provide industry-leading EV charging infrastructure coupled with leading-edge software to help customers meet the rapidly evolving dynamics of electric vehicle charging now and into the future.

Products range from domestic and fleet charge points, to fast AC and rapid DC (3.7 - 62.5 kW max power range with our chargers offer smart functionality and inter-connectivity of the hardware with cloud based software, available in flexible packages.

All projects are managed by OEM from site assessment and initial conception, through to delivery, with ongoing service support.

Technological developments have improved LED light output, efficacy and reliability, and reduced the cost of LEDs making them a mainstream solution for the majority of lighting applications in the UK.

LEDs are suited to building types including (but not limited to) distribution depots, warehouse operations, hangars, manufacturing facilities, retailers, and sports centres.

Making the switch to LED lighting is often considered to have the greatest impact in reducing commercial energy use and costs, with a drastic and immediate effect on energy consumption. Savings against traditional lighting sources can be as high as 70%.

As you will not be purchasing the electricity directly from the supplier, you will receive electricity savings from the solar PV system. Average prices from Solar are £0.05kWh, compared to the Grid at £0.14kWh.

By utilising solar PV energy rather than grid-supplied electricity you will offset 0.23kg CO₂ for every kWh you generate from your solar PV system.

Large organisations are vetting their supply chain to ensure they practice energy efficiency measures. Businesses generating their own energy through solar PV have a sustainability advantage.

CHP is the simultaneous generation of heat and power in a single process, providing one of the most cost-effective approaches for carbon savings.

CHP units use natural gas to power an engine that is designed to generate electricity through an alternator. The waste heat is recovered and converted into usable heat around your business’ site, improving savings further.

CHP units produce up to 50% energy savings and a 2-3 year payback.
