Simplifying energy across large multi-site operations.

Managing energy across several locations can be challenging. Keeping track of multiple contracts, meters, and renewal dates makes it difficult to retain control over your energy costs and consumption.

At Businesswise Solutions, we help multi-site businesses streamline their energy procurement process, ease administrative burden, and improve their energy visibility. Our expertise helps you manage energy more effectively across all sites, whether you’re a group of hotels or pubs, a network of industrial facilities, or a portfolio of retail units.

Some of our large multi-site clients:

Commercial buildings equate to a quarter of UK emissions

The UK’s built environment accounts for 17-25% of total national emissions, much of it from those with multi-site portfolios. Whether it’s hospitality, leisure or or retail, these portfolios play a critical role in decarbonising the UK.

Industry leaders are targeting net zero by 2040

The British Retail Consortium and UKHospitality have both committed to net zero by 2040, well ahead of the government’s 2050 target. Roadmaps include actions across operations, supply chains, refrigerants, and food waste.

£1.12bn potential energy bill savings

Government estimates suggest ESOS reforms could deliver £1.12bn in additional energy bill savings to participating businesses over 2023–2037. The savings will help support businesses to keep the costs of their products and services affordable for consumers.

Complex portfolios need smart energy procurement and bureau services

Managing energy contracts across multiple locations can be a significant administrative challenge. With different suppliers, tariffs, contract end dates and billing arrangements, maintaining a coordinated approach to energy procurement can be difficult.

Our energy procurement specialists help simplify this process, working to secure competitive contracts that reflect the needs of your entire estate.

Alongside procurement, our bureau services help reduce the administrative burden of managing multiple energy accounts, from invoice validation and billing queries to ongoing supplier liaison.

“As a multi-site energy user, we used to have a huge amount of raw data to sift through, however, the EMaaS solution shows us this information in a tangible, simple way and even ranks our sites on a variety of different criteria.”

Greater visibility and control across your estate

If you are responsible for energy across multiple sites, it is not always easy to find out where and how energy is being used.

Without a clear view of consumption across your portfolio, unusual usage patterns, inefficient sites and opportunities for savings can easily go unnoticed.

Our Energy Management as a Service (EMaaS) solution brings your energy data together, giving you better visibility of consumption and performance across individual sites.

By making it easier to monitor usage, compare locations and identify potential inefficiencies, we help you make more informed decisions about energy management across your estate.

“Having a tour around the Energy Centre and seeing the different energy-saving technology on show was an eye opener. As property managers of large portfolios it really showed us how much portfolio businesses could profit from making energy efficiency a top priority.”
