Environmental Performance

Understanding the service

Environmental performance looks at how your business uses energy, water and materials, and aims to improve its efficiency.

Our advisors will work with you to assess your energy and water use, carbon dioxide emissions, use of renewable materials and travel arrangements. Opportunities to reduce water and energy consumption, as well as cost saving measures that will benefit your business, will be identified.

An on-the-premises audit can be carried out or you can undertake a telephone interview.

You will be provided with an action plan clearly indicating how you can increase your efficiency, how much it will cost, how much you will save and when you will see a return.

Further support will be provided through follow-up visits or remote support to help you implement and monitor saving measures.

Advisors will provide guidance and information on carbon reduction commitments and actions, and other available support such as government grant schemes and enhanced capital allowances.

How it can help your business by using fewer resources, you can make economic gains, for example through lower energy bills or reduced paper consumption. You can also gain a competitive advantage with improved public perception, increased employee morale and motivation and more favourable procurement contract opportunities.

Getting started

Monitoring and recording your company’s consumption is fundamental in determining what savings can be made. Gathering as many utility bills and material invoices as you can to help establish the baseline for your current use will be a great start.
