  2. Total Energy Management • Investing in renewables is only part

    of the solution • First understand – How much energy do you use? – How do you use it? – Where do you use it? – How efficiently do you use it? – How much money are you wasting? – Are there any substitutes or alternatives?
  3. What is total energy management? It’s the ability to: 1)

    buy energy better 2) use energy better 3) create your own energy
  4. What’s the point? 1) Reduce energy costs 2) Reduce risk

    of rising energy costs and ensure constant supply 3) Improve profits 4) Create liquidity
  5. Why energy efficiency? • An energy audit should be the

    start of any renewables project • Find out what energy you are using, how you are using it and ways to reduce current usage • Renewable Energy can then enable energy self-sufficiency • Energy efficiency is a way for businesses to improve their financial strength and sustainability performance
  6. • Lighting in circulation areas is often kept on all

    the time, even if the space is only occupied intermittently • Fitting sensors to these areas can allow lights to be switch off when the space is not occupied Savings £1,244/yr CO2 savings 8.4 tonnes/yr Energy saving 15,552 KWh/yr Capital cost c£4,500 Payback 3.7 yrs Energy Reduction Solutions - Lighting Sensors
  7. Energy Reduction Solutions - Heat Pumps Heat pumps are a

    very energy efficient way of transferring heat from one place to another. They take waste heat from one source, such as the ground or ambient air, and transfer it to a space that requires heating. They use very little energy, so are cheap to run, and their carbon emissions are very low. Project Cost* £41,000 Project: Heat pumps Annual cost savings*: £20,000 Annual CO2 saving*: 83 tonnes Payback 2 years *Projected cost/savings
  8. Killer questions • How much do you spend on your

    energy per annum? • How do you buy your energy? • Can you buy it any cheaper? • How efficiently/effectively do you use your energy? • Can you use it better? • Are all your employees behaviourally “smart” around energy efficiency? • How much would you like to save per annum (£’s) on your energy bills? • Would you like greater liquidity in your business and also get paid for producing your own renewable energy? • Have you heard about the Energy Act 2011? • Have you heard about the Government’s green energy cash back schemes?
