Commercial Energy

We combine property understanding with energy knowledge and robust financial appraisal to ensure that tackling the problem of inefficient buildings and the threat of associated regulation brings commercial benefit and return.

Minimum performance standards proposed by the Government show the increasing drive to improve the energy efficiency of UK real estate.

The consequence of rising energy costs is that timeworn, inefficient and obsolete systems can be replaced, resulting in better quality space, surpassed minimum standards and significant returns on capital invested. Third party funding can take projects off balance sheet whilst providing performance guarantees.

Be it improved energy efficiency or low/no carbon power generation the benefit is not just the directly quantifiable return on capital.  Businesses are under more pressure to demonstrate Corporate Social Responsibility and to report annually on their sustainability credentials and how better than to deliver in these areas profitably?

We can guide you through every step of an energy project from a long term portfolio strategy to project development and detailed implementation. Once completed, a scheme's performance has to be monitored to ensure that the promised financial returns, energy savings and energy generation levels are delivered. Verification in our varied UK climate brings challenges of its own - but ones we are well equipped to meet.
