At Zero Trace we appreciate that you don’t want to pay for savings that are yet to happen. This is why we work on a result based fee structure, meaning that we will work closely with you to reduce your energy consumption over a set period through habitual changes, energy monitoring, and alterations to your property portfolio. At the end of the first year we calculate the value of the savings made and retain a set percentage.
Phase One:
Site visits take place to discover opportunities to reduce energy consumption through introducing habitual changes to staff and the streamlining of energy intensive processes.
Phase Two:
Temporary energy monitors are installed to record current energy usage habits and identify anomalies.
Phase Three:
An initial report is prepared detailing the discoveries made and the various options available in order to improve the site’s energy consumption. Options range from habitual changes with no financial commitment, to proven technological and service solutions. Where investment is required, the report provides advice on suppliers and funding options to ensure best value.
Phase Four:
Opportunity for monitoring equipment to remain in place permanently to provide live electric, gas, and water readings online from an Internet based platform to ensure savings remain secure and continue to grow.
Phase Five:
Monthly progress reports are supplied detailing past progress and future plans. Ongoing assessments ensure that savings are held and provide a platform from which further savings can be made.
The Zero Trace energy solution is an alternative to one-off consultancy reports. Our team is proud to work closely with our clients over time to ensure that real and significant savings are made.
By firstly installing energy monitoring equipment to a section of a building or portfolio to identify energy usage trends and occupant behaviour, a typical reduction in energy bills of 10% can be achieved. Making occupants aware and accountable for their energy consumption provides the incentive and the opportunity for change.
Site visits are carried out to assess where improvements could be made to the existing structure, and which improvements would be most beneficial. With so many options on the market to save energy within commercial buildings, it can become difficult to find the best solution. Which is why our initial consultancy report outlines each option available for reducing energy consumption, including cost and payback calculations, CO² savings, and the availability of funding.
The goal of the Zero Trace energy solution is to help commercial property occupants, managers, and landlords to discover new ways to reduce energy expenditure. And with our results based fee structure, it means there is no downside to seeing what Zero Trace could do for you.
