• Historical energy data analysed.
• An onsite energy survey and report produced.
• Results of the survey presented to management.
• Help creating an action plan broken down in to no cost, low cost and capital cost measures.
• Staff energy awareness training.
• Help to identify potential installers and quote analysis
• Up to 35% funding towards at least two energy saving measures.
• Publicity through the programme's dedicated website and case studies.
