How a Carbon Survey will help cut your business costs

Simply put, if you want to identify where you can cut your business costs, our Carbon Survey is guaranteed to show you how to achieve just that:

Each survey will show you where you can reduce your energy bills and more. No ifs, maybes or buts.
A survey is free, to organisations with an annual energy spend of £50,000 or greater.

On average, we’ve helped UK businesses save 20% on their energy bills after doing a Carbon Survey. And what’s more, we can provide help for businesses with limited experience in energy efficiency as well as those already committed to carbon reduction.

Argyle Energy are fully accredited consultants with the Carbon Trust and there’s never been a better time to start looking for ways to reduce your business costs. To find out how we can help improve your bottom line, simply email us at energy@argyleuk.com asking to contact you about taking part

If your energy bill is below £50,000, dont worry, you may still qualify for subsidised survey reports under alternative schemes which are available from different sources from time to time, through which Argyle Energy are also accredited. Please contact us to discuss an appropriate energy efficiency study for your organisation.

Smart Metering

Would you like to...

gain control of your energy usage and spend?
see your energy data in an easy-to-use format?
get accurate energy bills?
forecast energy use more accurately?
benchmark your "best in class" premises?

Argyle Energy has an innovative and competitively priced smart metering solution for you: "Smart Metering for Business". Our solution is ideal if you want to monitor and manage your business' energy consumption so that you can:

control energy usage
reduce energy costs
save money on electricity bills
reduce carbon footprint

Around the world, the introduction of smart meters is transforming the way that consumers interact with their energy suppliers. This technology allows businesses to take control of their energy consumption, save money and help to protect the environment.

For you, it’s about having better information. Once you see how much it costs to run the compressed air or lighting for one hour or one day, it suddenly gets easier to measure out only what you really need. And when you realise exactly how much that extra chiller in the plant room is costing you, you may decide you don’t need it after all. Smart metering allows you to reduce not only cost but also your “carbon footprint”, something businesses are increasingly aware of.

We can offer you a full range of smart metering services encompassing business transformation consulting, technology and managed business services. We manage, and in many cases execute, all of the necessary technological work including design, meter and network installation and integration of new and existing systems.

Equally importantly, we have the experience to help you transform your business to realise all the benefits of smart metering.

Services

Providing energy services to business, commerce and industry is our key objective. Whether its finding the best energy contract, getting connected to mains gas or electricity, energy auditing or advice about renewables or equipment use, we help hundreds of businesses every year find their way though the maze of energy information. Argyle Energy’s expertise also extends into energy systems for a variety of businesses including retail, manufacturing and hospitality. For example work commissioned through the carbon trust has taken Argyle Energy consultants into a wide range of businesses including hotels, factories, shops, abattoirs and general manufacture where we have been able to advise on a wide range of energy saving technologies.

Infrastructure projects
Getting a new water, gas or electricity connection is no easy business these days. You need to talk to energy suppliers, distribution network operators, meter operators and a whole host of other interconnected providers. Getting this wrong can cause delays, high costs and ultimately a utility connection which is not suitable for the job it is supposed to do. We have staff who both understand agriculture and have an intimate knowledge of how the utility business works. We can provide a turn key service, to assess your requirements and carry out all the necessary communications with the utility company, so you can get the appropriate connection at the lowest cost.

Energy Procurement
Getting a good deal on a utility contract means thorough research and understanding of how the structure of energy purchasing impacts on the total energy bill at the end of the year. Fixed costs, energy demand charges, minimum contract consumptions, cheap tariff times and power factors all need to be taken into consideration. So it's not a simple business and that's why FEC Services helps a number of clients by purchasing energy in the most effective way. For larger clients we can handle tendering procedures and account management throughout the year.

Training
As a larger company, you probably have a number of staff who need to have a good understanding of energy issues and how they can make a difference in this area. We’ve helped a number of companies with both energy efficiency and electrical safety courses. All training is designed for your particular needs and includes expert tuition and notes

Energy efficiency and carbon reduction
The very first consideration of any energy management programme is simply to use less. Before you move on to renewable energy technologies, it is vital to introduce a practical and achievable set of energy efficiency measures. Usually, very quick wins can be achieved with little or no capital outlay. You can then move on to longer term measures that require investment, or a change or shift in culture or habits, leading to tangible and sustainable reductions in energy use. Indeed some of the UK's leading grant award programmes are linked to specific energy efficiency baselines. Energy efficiency is vital in the struggle to combat global warming. Energy efficiency measures can be very cost effective too. In many organisations energy savings of 15-20% can be made with little investment. Reducing energy use could significantly cut your energy bills, increase profit and competitiveness, boost your reputation and help protect the environment. We can offer free energy surveys for qualifying organisations under the government's Carbon Trust scheme

Our energy consultants are registered with both the Carbon Trust and the Institute of Energy and are therefore well qualified to take on all types of energy work. Audits can be either funded directly or application can be made though the Carbon Trust for grant funded work. Carbon Trust supported work is available to sites spending more than £50k per year on energy.
