How We Can Help

Carbon Emission
& Cost Reduction

Balancing your energy trilemma

Balancing energy security, sustainability and affordability is a challenge the sector faces as we work towards the UK’s 2050 net zero target. We support you in developing and delivering your carbon roadmap to ensure you achieve your carbon reductions targets whilst reducing energy costs through reliable energy solutions.

Energy Savings Calculator

Use our bespoke Calculator to find out how much carbon and energy you can save through generation technologies and energy conservation measures.

or below to see an example of information that is required to provide an estimated financial and carbon saving.

Click below to start the calculator and we'll email you a summary of energy savings tailored to your requirements.

Estimate example

A hospital in Swansea with 330 beds and 64,000 m² floor space will achieve 286 tonnes per year CO2 and financial savings of £123,000 per year, based on the data input below.

An example of the data you'll be required to input and the output that will be calculated:
