BENEFITS
Energy procurement
Use Chamber Utilities™ group purchasing power and expertise to make impressive savings. Arrange flexible or fixed contracts with a customer support team on hand to guide you and deal with suppliers on your behalf.
Utilities audit
Paying for energy you don’t use? As part of the procurement service Chamber Utilities™ look for incorrect charging from suppliers, check your KVA (power supply) and Maximum Demand (highest level of consumption). Your Power Factor will also be analysed.
Energy efficiency surveys
Reduce your bills and carbon emissions. Free Carbon Trust surveys are available to qualifying sites – typically identifying opportunities to reduce consumption by 10 to 30%. Other surveys for heating, lighting, CHP and new build advice are also available.
Water surveys
Flush out spiralling costs. Wasting water through inefficiency could be costing you. A water survey will audit your consumption, analyse your bills, provide recommendations and seek compensation, where applicable.
Complying with new regulations
Chamber Utilities™ can help you comply with The European Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, the new Carbon Reduction Commitment and other legislation.
Energy efficient lighting system
Save up to 50%. An innovative lighting system cuts electricity bills and reduces carbon emissions by up to 50%.
Bureau service
Chamber Utilities™ will keep an eye on your utility bills. Analysts will validate your bills to ensure compliance with the contract and provide a range of reporting modules.
Smart metering and data reporting
No more estimated bills. Straight to your laptop or PC, easy to understand information on the state of your gas, electricity and water supply.
Controlling your heating/cooling
Working at the right temperature. Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS) are controlled remotely and provide full data to your PC, using unique Virtual Energy Manager software. Both capital purchase and lease options are available, but you will quickly see the pay back.
