Reducing your business energy costs is one thing that is on many minds. How can you cut costs without causing too much disruption or any knock-on effects? Depending on the size of your business and facilities, there are in fact a few things you can be doing to help lower energy costs.
1) Energy Audit
Requesting an energy audit from a utility company can be really beneficial. So, this way they can help you figure out where your money is going every month. From this, you can then sit down and figure out ways you can start reducing costs. Get your FREE energy audit today – fill out the form below and one of our Business Energy team will get back to you.
2) Switch It Off
This may seem like an obvious thing to some, but turning off anything electrical when the room is not in use has a big impact. From light switches to computers and monitors, if left on they use energy. But by ensuring you switch it all off at the end of the day helps too as you won’t be paying for the energy overnight.
3) Take Advantage Of Natural Light
Sunlight is there to be used. Let the light in, especially during the summer months. This reduces the need to use office lights during the day.
4) Energy-Efficient Office Equipment
The next time you go to purchase new office equipment, try selecting an energy-efficient product. They can drastically help reduce energy costs across your business.
5) Alternative Energy Sources
Where possible, try using commercial renewable energy sources like solar and wind to power some of your business. Again, depending on the size of your company depends on how much of the business you can power with renewable energy alone. But this way, you are contributing to lowering harmful CO2 emissions and other greenhouse gases.
Even the smallest changes can lead to huge impacts. So the more you actively try to find alternative energy sources, the more you’re helping the environment and saving yourself money.
