Supporting engineering and manufacturing businesses with their energy challenges.
Engineering and manufacturing businesses face growing pressure to control energy costs, maintain productivity and meet sustainability targets. Businesswise Solutions helps reduce costs through smarter energy procurement, improved efficiency and access to eligible energy-related exemptions and reliefs.
Some of our industrial clients:
Manufacturing remains the UK’s single largest emitting industry
UK manufacturing is responsible for approximately 62 million tonnes CO₂e in 2023 – around 16% of the UK total emissions.
UK industrial electricity costs are among the highest in the world
In 2023 costs neared 26p per kWh, compared to the IEA average of 17.7p, placing UK manufacturers at a competitive disadvantage.
Smart energy procurement and bureau services
Engineering and manufacturing businesses can be significant energy users, making energy costs an important factor in operational performance and competitiveness.
As volatility in the wholesale markets adds to the uncertainty, an effective energy procurement strategy can help manage both cost and risk.
Our energy traders develop purchasing strategies aligned with your consumption, operational requirements and risk appetite.
Combined with our bureau services such as invoice validation, query resolution and consumption tracking, you get greater visibility and control over your energy spend, helping identify savings and improve budget certainty.
End-to-end energy management
Energy-intensive processes and equipment can make it difficult to understand where, when and how energy is being used.
Without the right visibility, inefficiencies remain hidden, increasing operating costs and carbon emissions.
Our Energy Management as a Service (EMaaS) gives you detailed visibility of energy consumption across individual equipment, processes and entire facilities.
We help you reduce consumption and carbon emissions while maintaining productivity, quality and uptime by finding inefficient equipment and ways to cut down on waste and demand spikes.
Energy and carbon compliance for the engineering industry
Engineering and manufacturing companies face a range of energy and carbon reporting requirements, alongside opportunities to reduce costs through available exemptions and reliefs.
Being aware of these schemes can assist you in remaining compliant, safeguarding margins and getting closer to your sustainability objectives.
We manage your reporting obligations accurately and on time, with our compliance experts identifying opportunities for you to reduce your energy costs through eligible exemptions and reliefs.
From ongoing compliance support to energy intensive relief schemes, we help you meet your regulatory requirements and make sure you’re not paying more for energy than you need to.
