When it comes to the cost of living, everyone is feeling the pinch at the moment – even businesses. There are many ways that your company can save energy and in turn, help cut back on high outgoing bills. Check out some of our top energy saving tips for businesses below.
Switch To Energy Saving Lightbulbs
If you haven’t already, make the switch to greener lightbulbs. These lightbulbs use up to 80% less energy than standard ones and they don’t even need to be replaced as often!
Install Motion Sensitive Lighting
When you’re not using the lights in your premises, it’s easy to save energy with motion sensitive lighting. This style of lighting will turn off automatically when rooms are not in use.
Switch Off Computers Overnight
Don’t unnecessarily leave your computers on overnight! Turning off monitors when they’re not in use will make big savings on your commercial electricity bills.
Only Boil The Water You Need
When making your favourite hot beverage at work, be careful how much water you’re actually heating up. Boil just enough water for the number of teas and coffees needed. Boiling and re-boiling excessive amounts of water can cause an unnecessary increase to your energy bills.
Conduct An Energy Audit
Make sure to take regular meter readings around your business premises. This will not only help you to keep track of your energy consumption, it will also help you identify areas where more savings could be made in the future.
