We recently worked on a project with a local environmentally conscious manufacturer who started to make big savings by following these 5 steps.
1. Monitoring and Review – This can be achieved by monitoring your baseline energy usage to indicate where waste energy can be saved.
2. Setting up an ECO-Team helps to drive your company and employees to implement change by creating their own targets, and action plans.
3. These actions qualify for accredited awards. This not only improves the morale within your company but also promotes to your customers that you are a sustainable business worth supporting.
4. Waste management is an important step, this can include any type of waste from energy and greening your supply chain.
^ We can support your business to save you money through these steps. ^
5. The savings guaranteed from these 4 simple steps will leave you with a budget to invest in an innovative technology to further save your company more money and reduce your carbon impact.
Through our analysis the local company would save approximately £10,000 a year from behavioural changes alone. This would then be reinvested into solar energy usage which will have a quick return period due to their high energy usage. This would continue to benefit them for approximately 25 years.
