Install energy efficiency measures with SHIFT Environment

We do loads of environmental reporting for clients which highlight key interventions that reduce energy use in non-domestic buildings, reduce carbon emissions and contribute to energy security.

The next step is to actually install those interventions. To make this part of the job a little easier, we’ve teamed up with a national network of vetted and trusted installers. Getting suppliers through this network gets you fair rates for quality work. For the right premises, the payback periods are very favourable. Here’s a selection of the technologies that the network can install:

  • Solar PV
  • LED lighting
  • Solar car ports
  • Heat pumps
  • EV chargers
  • Ozone cleaning (ideal for companies with lots of laundry)
  • HVAC upgrades
  • Combined heat and power
  • Battery storage

As a rule of thumb, you can typically make big savings if your premises use 150,000 kWh or more. But as our clients know, energy payback isn’t the only thing to think about when exploring efficiency interventions. Also consider:

  • Future proofing your premises – a whole raft of policy measures are directing organisations to net zero
  • ESG – looking good for investors helps secure funding
  • Staff retention – employees want to work for organisations that are doing good for the planet
  • More sales – there is evidence that pursuing sustainability strategies gains you more sales
  • Compliance – there are existing and anticipated legislative regimes that require organisations to improve energy efficiency
  • See our “profit estimator” for a rough idea of other possible financial benefits

A reminder of the advantages of working with this network:

  • Fair rates for quality work
  • Grant funding and investment funding available
  • Vetted and trusted suppliers giving you peace of mind
  • National coverage
  • Free quotes
  • As this is a network of suppliers there are low overhead costs

If you would like quotes for a particular project, please get in touch and we can start moving you a net zero carbon future. Not quite sure which interventions are the best for you?  Get in touch to ask about our energy audits.

As an aside, if you are in a landlord/tenant arrangement, then please take a look at this article first: landlord/tenant net zero. Once you have agreed those interventions, please get back in touch.
