Energy Solutions for Manufacturing

Manufacturers are under considerable pressure in the contemporary industrial environment to maintain competitive production costs and comply with environmental and other compliance standards. Energy represents one of the most significant overheads on the production floor, yet is also one of the most neglected areas for savings and efficiencies.
E for Energy is thrilled to work with manufacturers across the UK to translate the complexities around energy contracts, compliance schemes, and efficiency investments. We help factories achieve cost minimisation, compliance, and the application of a more intuitive and better-quality energy, without the impacts on operation.

The energy challenges for manufacturers

Manufacturing plants are baseload intensive with large pieces of equipment and run continuously throughout the week. Energy usage is not only high, it's constant too. Conventional contracts do not properly account for typical usage patterns and this leads to overcharging, high standing charges, and missed opportunities for rebates or exemptions.
Then, the weight of compliance comes into play — VAT, Climate Change Levy (CCL), Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS), Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) — it is easy to see why energy managers will often feel they are overpaying for energy.

What E for Energy does for manufacturers

Smarter energy procurement
We do not simply find the cheapest deal on paper; we formulate a compliance plan that aligns with your plant's consumption profile and business goals. It could be fixed-rate security, flexible contracts to mitigate volatility, or group purchasing; we make sure that every kilowatt hour works harder for your business.
Compliance and levy optimisation
Energy tax is complex, but it does not have to be expensive. We guarantee you are not paying too much for VAT or CCL, and carry out the paperwork for any exemptions and refunds that your business is entitled to. Our compliance specialists make you audit-ready for ESOS and SECR so you can be worry free.
Efficiency Perspectives
Energy efficiency within the manufacturing process extends far beyond simply upgrading to LED lighting. We perform site-specific audits that examine production line intensity, HVAC optimisation, compressed air leak, and load management. Many of the recommendations we make, pay back the cost of implementation in less than 18 months, and provide years of savings.
Compliance and levy optimisation
We install smart metering systems that generate monitoring dashboards for plant managers to monitor energy use, and you will be surprised by the visibility you get. This often reveals underlying inefficiency and gives you the ability to adjust your operations in real time to save money with no impact on production.
