Energy saving audits in London

Are we confident we’ll find you savings?

Definitely. We expect to find real value for the client – If a situation
arose whereby savings did not cover the cost of the report there would be
no charge

The Benefits

  • There are opportunities to lower your bills, year on year
  • The report provides a path to insulate against future energy price
    rises
  • The report provides a chance to demonstrate corporate social
    responsibility
  • Aids organisations in complying with energy efficiency legislation by;
    • a. Providing a pathway to improve DEC and EPC ratings
    • b. Providing a method of insulating against tightening CRC thresholds
    • c. Reduces the impact of future carbon taxes

What will the report tell us?

The survey uses a method of assessment that enables accurate and detailed
forecasting of a range of energy efficiency improvements and details the
following information about a building:

  • The potential monetary annual savings (£)
  • The ‘no cost’ improvements possible
  • Accurate payback periods where improvements are paid for by savings in
    energy
  • The potential reductions in CO2
  • The potential reductions in KWh
  • The potential reductions in water use
  • Accurate assessment of the capital costs to implement other
    improvements
  • Return on investment over a 5 year period

Amongst the range of improvements, it is not uncommon to find improvements
that have a return on investment of 200%. Interest free loans are available
for the Carbon Trust for energy saving projects that can save certain
amounts of CO2 per pre set level of spend.

Which parts of the building are inspected?

Within the survey we evaluate the standard of the building fabric, the
energy use of lighting, heating, cooling, ventilation, hot water, cold
water use, IT equipment and possibilities for renewable energy.

The occupancy pattern and the way the building is used and controlled is
evaluated as is the previous year’s energy and water spend.

PPN 006: Your Fast Track to Sustainable, Compliant Procurement

Public sector buyers are raising the bar, and PPN 006 is the test every supplier must pass. As government departments tighten their sustainability expectations, the firms that can demonstrate credible carbon reporting and a robust Carbon Reduction Plan will secure a clear competitive edge in panel reviews and tendered work. Those who get ahead now will dominate tenders for years to come. Those who don’t? They’ll watch the contracts go elsewhere. We break down what PPN 006 really demands—and how smart London law firms are turning compliance into a powerful competitive advantage.

The Carbon Credit Illusion

In the race to become ‘net zero’, more and more companies are turning to carbon credits to offset their emissions. On paper, it sounds like a win: emit carbon here, pay someone to reduce it somewhere else and you’re off the hook.
