What is a smart microgrid?

How can our business cut electricity costs?

What are the best ways to reduce energy use?

How can technology boost productivity?

Is decarbonisation a smart investment for business?

If you’re asking these questions, some will suggest solutions like solar power, LEDs, or energy management software. Those could be part of the answer, but it’s not the whole picture. Those solutions start from a piece of kit that someone is trying to sell, not what’s best for you.

Instead, we look at your operational processes, energy usage patterns, available space, solar and wind potential, planning permissions, grid connections, target returns, and how you strike the balance between cost and reliability.

Looking across every technology, we design, build and operate a ‘smart microgrid’.

It’s a tailored combination of:

• on-site generation (solar panels, wind turbines, biomass, combined heat and power systems and more)

• battery and thermal energy storage

• heat pumps and other energy conversion technologies

• IoT sensors and software control systems

• energy efficiency upgrades (HVAC, insulation, timers, LEDs)

The exact set-up reflects your needs and how those can best be served. And if required, we can offer funding options to cover upfront capex, ensuring a smoother transition to energy independence. 

Speak to us to find out if a smart microgrid is right for your business.

If it is, it will help you to:

• cut your energy use

• reduce costs

• enhance productivity, and

• lower your carbon emissions.

And if it’s not right for you, we’ll tell you.
