The challenge
Opaque energy use across chill, freeze and process lines. Retailer Scope 3 reporting deadlines approaching.
Our approach
- Sub-metering deployed on every major load
- Building Atlas dashboard giving production and engineering teams a shared view
- HVAC and compressed air optimisation with continuous commissioning
- Funded delivery: monthly repayments below monthly savings from day one
The outcome
- 22% base-load reduction inside 6 months
- £265k saved annually, fully evidenced for retailer submissions
- Ongoing Building Atlas monitoring flags drift before it becomes waste
“We finally have one view of energy across the site, and the funding meant we didn't have to fight for the business case.”
