Energy Surveys and Low-Cost Audits

Empowering businesses

Taking control of energy expenditure

One of the key expenditures for businesses is the cost of energy. Although a challenge, every organisation can reduce and take control of its energy expenditure. The tricky part initially is understanding how.

Introducing various energy-saving measures is the ideal way to start cutting costs and reducing associated carbon emissions. These can involve building, or equipment upgrades or rolling out staff awareness programs.

Conducting energy audits and surveys for sites and buildings is crucial for identifying and implementing energy-saving measures.

Surveying and auditing

Start with site audits and surveys

A thorough energy survey or audit is an effective method for lowering energy expenses. It is essential for any decarbonization strategy, providing insight into areas and methods for reducing carbon emissions. Conducting audits and surveys can open a broad range of opportunities. Audits provide an excellent starting point, depending on your goals.

An organisation may seek support for energy surveying, aiming to comply with specific government legislation, notably the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS). Upon achieving compliance with ESOS, several efficiency improvements will need consideration, aimed at either reducing costs or energy consumption.

However, if you want to check for quick wins projects with short payback periods, we can also offer “Low-cost audits”, which offer a quick view of the potential projects to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions.

Complying with ESOS

If your business meets the ESOS qualification criteria, energy auditing is a key aspect of the compliance procedure and will be required to ensure compliance is achieved.

Business Development

Utilising a compiled energy audit report, will help build a solid case for projects that require capital expenditure – and clearly state payback periods.

Visibility of consumption

Gain insight into how your organisation is using energy currently, along with potential ways to reduce consumption.

Make informed decisions

Energy audit reports will provide you with data to make appropriate decisions about implementing energy saving processes and future policies.

Effective project planning

The energy audit will be vital to refer to when prioritising certain energy saving projects, to ensure quick results are achieved.

Resilience

Build resilience and mitigate climate and market-related risks to your energy supply.

Our three-stage approach to energy audits and surveys...

Stage one

Compile a complete and fully detailed record of all relevant energy consumption data.

Stage two

Undertake initial surveys which involve a thorough examination of energy usage at specific locations to identify energy saving opportunities.

Stage three

Create an energy report that assesses and analyses energy consumption throughout your organisation. The report will detail complete energy profiles and detailing relevant efficiency opportunities.

Approach to complete your "Low-cost" energy audit

Compile energy consumption and cost for one year.
Arrange energy site audit.
Generate an energy report within one day after the site audit with a summary of the most relevant opportunities to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions. Estimated cost and payback will be provided.
If required, Trident will provide a follow- up to help with the implementation and the monitoring of the energy savings.

Our approach to "Low-cost" energy audits

Compile

Compile energy consumption and cost for one year, so that we can picture your energy situation.

Deliver

Arrange energy site audit so that we can visit your site and indetify the areas with potential for energy savings.

Generate
