Sustainable energy and cost reduction for UK businesses
Secure credible renewable supply, understand every line on your bill, and build a practical plan to cut energy spend, not just your unit rate.
Radical transparency, then action
The same three ideas we apply on every mandate: renewable credibility, bill clarity, and measurable reduction.
True renewable electricity
Match your usage with REGO-backed generation so your reporting aligns with credible green claims. We help you compare tariffs and longer-term routes such as corporate PPAs.
Full cost visibility
The unit rate is only part of the story. We break down policy costs, network charges, and metering so you can see where money goes, and where it can be challenged.
Lower use, lower bills
Procurement fixes the price; behaviour and plant fix the volume. We combine tariff strategy with efficiency, monitoring, and flexibility where it makes sense.
Already generating on site, or planning to with our sister solar business? See how we structure import and export electricity contracts around your actual import, self-consumption, and export profile.
Indicative renewable business rates
Illustrative averages for REGO-backed business electricity. Markets move daily, so treat these as a conversation starter, not a quote.
Source-style benchmark period: Q1 2024; your site's profile and renewal timing will differ.
| Segment | Typical use | Unit (indicative) | Standing (indicative) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Micro business | ~10,000 kWh / year | ~26.5p / kWh | ~55p / day |
| Small business | ~25,000 kWh / year | ~25.2p / kWh | ~65p / day |
| Medium business | ~50,000 kWh / year | ~24.1p / kWh | ~£1.20 / day |
Policy and network charges matter
Green generation is only sustainable if the commercial model is understood. We walk through the non-commodity lines that fund infrastructure and support net-zero investment, so boards see the full picture.
- Renewables Obligation (RO) and legacy Feed-in Tariff (FiT) costs still appear on many bills as policy levies.
- Contracts for Difference (CfD) and other schemes can change over time; we explain what you are funding and why.
- Distribution and transmission (DUoS, TNUoS) scale with demand and connection, so they are worth reviewing alongside your unit rate.
The “33 kWh / day” check
Some sites with very low average electricity use may interact differently with certain levies and billing rules. If your demand is modest, it is worth validating thresholds with your adviser. We help you pull the meter data to have an informed conversation with your accountant or tax team.
Cost reduction that survives the next renewal
Procurement sets the frame; these levers change what you buy. We prioritise measures with clear ownership and measurable impact.
Energy audits & quick wins
Structured walk-throughs and data reviews to find lighting, HVAC, and operational savings before you spend on capex.
Smart metering & half-hourly data
Granular consumption helps spot waste, validate bills, and support flexible or time-of-use products where available.
Demand-side response
Where suitable, shifting or trimming peak demand can reduce charges and open access to flexibility revenues.
On-site generation
Solar PV, battery storage, and heat pumps can cut bought-in power and stabilise long-run costs, scoped with realistic payback.
Grants and incentives
We signpost relevant schemes and procurement routes so efficiency and low-carbon projects stack up financially.
A practical path to net zero
We keep milestones commercial: fewer tonnes, lower cost, and audit-ready evidence, not slide decks that never reach the P&L.
Baseline and audit: measure consumption, costs, and carbon hotspots.
Procure credible renewables: REGOs, green tariffs, or PPAs matched to your risk profile.
Implement efficiency and on-site low carbon: reduce demand before offsetting the remainder.
Monitor and report: keep finance and sustainability teams aligned with regular reviews.
Common questions
- What counts as renewable business electricity?
- Typically supply matched with REGOs from renewable generation. We explain certificate coverage, residual mix exposure, and how that maps to your reporting framework.
- Can green tariffs cost more?
- They can cost more, but not always, once policy and volume are optimised. We compare whole-bill outcomes, not just the advertised unit rate.
- Where should we start on cost reduction?
- Data first: accurate metering, a recent bill validation, and a short audit of your top loads. Quick wins often fund the next stage of efficiency or on-site generation.
Want a second opinion on your current deal?
Send a recent bill. We will sanity-check commodity, levies, and pass-throughs, and outline renewable and efficiency options that fit your operations.
