One-to-one support 

Advisors will guide you through every stage of the process to:

  • help you understand your energy usage and identify where you could save energy
  • refer you for an energy survey
  • support you to understand the results of the survey and how you could fund improvements, including whether you could apply for a grant through the project
  • help you find other sources of support to help you reduce your energy costs and carbon footprint.

Energy survey

Free energy survey of your premises to show you how much energy you use now and how you could save energy.

The report will identify energy saving improvements the organisation could invest in. It will also give you details on how much carbon each could save, how much it would cost, and how much money it could save you, so you can decide what’s the right path to take.

Energy Efficiency Grants

The project includes a grant scheme through which you may be able to apply for funding to help pay for your energy-saving changes.
