E.ON Advises Firms On How To Save On Their Energy Bills
Britain's small business owners could see savings of up to a quarter or more on their energy bills by upgrading equipment, improving energy efficiency and changing behaviour.
That's according to E.ON which today launched a range of tailored measures and advice designed to help companies have greater control of their energy consumption and costs.
Depending on their type of business, E.ON estimates that by looking across the range of energy savings options available, small manufacturing companies might save up to 26% on their energy bills, with office-based firms potentially seeing savings of up to 38%.
From simple measures such as switching off appliances when not in use, or investing in more efficient replacements for energy-hungry equipment such as heaters, compressors and refrigerators, small business owners could see significant savings on their bottom line.
E.ON's 'Energy Toolkit' is a new package of help and advice for small businesses designed to help companies see where and when energy is used and delivered in a way that doesn't disrupt normal business. Customers can request a free wireless energy monitor giving a real-time display of how their energy use stacks up and have access to energy saving advice relevant to their specific industry and company size.
Anthony Ainsworth, Sales and Marketing Director at E.ON, said: "Small business owners are tied up doing lots of things - they are often the boss, sales agent, secretary, procurement department and accountant all in one. It's safe to say they no business owner wants to waste money, yet that's what using unnecessary amounts of energy does.
"Our customers told us they wanted help with this, and that is why we've created our new Energy Toolkit - to help customers use no more energy than they need and to do so in a way that fits alongside their busy lives.
"With our energy monitor, customers can see at-a-glance how much appliances cost, the potential savings they could make and payback periods for new technologies. And by speaking to our dedicated advisers, customers can take any guesswork out of simple energy efficiency measures or even larger budget investments that could provide greater benefit over a longer period of time."
