Lighting Solutions
Whether your business is looking for an entirely new lighting system or your looking to upgrade your existing ones, it's important you understand what exactly what your businesses current lighting system is lacking and what requirements you have for your new one.
Are your lighting levels sufficient? Is the colour temperature correct?
It is not just about the power as the more efficient light sources will have a higher lumen per watt output, so the wattage is not a level of brightness. Instead, light output is measured in lumens, the higher the lumens the brighter your light will be. It is usually worth having a lighting design undertaken and a free consultation with one of our experts.
Energy Monitoring
Energy monitoring refers to the process of tracking and analysing the consumption of energy in a building, facility, or industrial operation. The aim is to understand energy usage patterns, identify inefficiencies, and find opportunities to reduce energy waste, improve operational performance, and lower energy costs.
Sub-metering
Sub-metering is the process of installing additional meters (sub-meters) to monitor energy consumption in specific areas, equipment, or departments within a building or facility.
It provides detailed, granular data on how energy is used beyond the main utility meter, allowing businesses to track and manage energy usage more effectively.
Voltage Optimisation
Voltage Optimisation (VO) is an energy-saving technology that reduces and regulates the voltage supplied to electrical equipment, ensuring that it operates at its most efficient level.
The UK's electricity grid typically supplies power at around 230-240V, but most electrical equipment is designed to work efficiently at around 210-220V.
Solar P.V
Solar PV (Photovoltaic) technology is a renewable energy system that converts sunlight into electricity using solar panels. The term “photovoltaic” refers to the process of producing electricity from light (photo) using a voltage (voltaic).
Solar Panels: Solar panels are made up of solar cells that absorb sunlight and generate Direct Current (DC) electricity.
Battery Storage Systems
Energy battery storage solutions or systems (BESS) are battery units that are used to store a renewable energy supply.
It plays a crucial role in modern energy management, especially in renewable energy systems like solar and wind, by storing excess electricity generated during peak production times and releasing it when energy demand is high.
Heat Pumps
A heat pump is an energy-efficient heating and cooling system that transfers heat from one place to another using electricity. It works by extracting heat from a natural source (like air, ground, or water) and moving it into a building to provide space heating or hot water.
Heatinging Systems
MVHR (Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery) is the most energy-efficient ventilation system that maintains a high level of indoor air quality by continuously providing fresh filtered air and extracting the stale and polluted air from the area it serves.
This process helps maintain a comfortable temperature and keeps the building ventilated.
Infrared Heating
Infrared heating is a highly efficient heating technology that uses infrared radiation to transfer heat directly to objects, surfaces, and people, rather than warming the air.
It mimics the way the sun warms the earth — heating things directly, rather than the space around them.
Industrial infrared heaters come in three main types: quartz, ceramic, and metal-sheathed.
These heaters use electromagnetic infrared radiation.
