E for Energy has a core expertise at enabling businesses to towards carbon neutrality through effective procurement, renewable supply and consumption management.
The first step But to act, you need to know where your pollution is coming from: how much energy you use, how you travel, what you throw away, and what’s in your supply chain. A basic carbon audit can reveal where modest adjustments can have the biggest impact. We enable business owners to collect data, analyze usage trends, and find the most cost-effective solutions.
Sources An easy path to net zero is renewable electricity and carbon-offset gas. Green tariffs are also available from many suppliers at competitive rates, which means you can reduce your – without increasing your –. Through E for Energy’s supplier network, we procure affordable green contracts tailored to your usage profile.
Efficiency retrofits tend to be the most underestimated component of sustainability. Energy consumption — and bills — can be slashed through simple steps such as switching to LED lightbulbs, using smart thermostats and optimising equipment. We help customers understand how to read half-hourly data and make real changes that result in measurable savings.
Once you’ve reduced your direct emissions, offsetting is a good way to get to net zero. Numerous companies in the UK now purchase verified carbon offsets, from tree planting to renewable infrastructure overseas. Our consultants can assist you in finding reputable offsets to complement your green power plan. Going net zero doesn’t have to mean paying more. By implementing the appropriate buying strategy and sustainability initiatives, your company can decrease emissions, save on energy costs and boost its brand.
