AUDITS & SOLUTIONS

You can only achieve energy-efficiency gains for your business by accurately measuring your usage.

Affiliated Utilities can undertake full energy audits and come up with the right solutions for your business. Our energy audits will give you clarity of thought and a clear pathway to achieving greater energy efficiency and reducing operating costs.

With our strong and trusted relationships with suppliers, we can often recover unnecessary costs from previous bills too.

MONITORING & REPORTING

Our ongoing energy management services provide you with a range of tools to monitor energy consumption and help you make savings either by changing suppliers, entering into contract re-negotiations, using smarter metering technology or reducing existing usage.

We also have expertise in resolving complex account reconciliations, rebilling queries or cross-site energy consumption accounting issues.

We provide you with easy-to-follow monthly consumption reports including:

Total energy costs and carbon emissions
Monthly graphics indicating comparative daily consumption
12-monthly tables with comparisons to previous years
Energy performance improvement indicators
Exceptional usage mechanisms to identify energy peaks
Consumption outside of usual business hours.

COMPLIANCE

The Affiliated Utilities team will keep you at the forefront of the energy industry and comply with regulations from the government or the EU.

We can undertake compliance reviews and make recommendations to ensure your business is compliant with a range of energy benchmarks, including:

The government’s mandatory Energy Saving Opportunity Scheme (ESOS)
The Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) for organisations using over 6000 MWh
Energy Certificates (DECs) for public sector buildings over 250 sq m
Minimum Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) standards for commercially let buildings
EPC ratings for installation of solar panels/photovoltaic equipment
Ratings for Feed in Tariff (FIT) eligibility.

CARBON REPORTING

There are several benefits of undertaking a full audit of your business’s carbon footprint, not least that it can lead to cost efficiencies when you have established the causes of CO₂ emissions.

Our reports will show you where you can take specific measures to reduce carbon generation. This innovative approach to energy data management can result in the adoption of new procedures or the introduction of renewable technologies which have a positive effect on your business’s bottom-line profitability.
