Why Electrify Your Heating?

Heating and hot water remain among the largest contributors to carbon emissions in commercial buildings. As organisations set their sights on net zero, the case for switching to electrical heat solutions has never been stronger - particularly with rising energy security concerns and unpredictable gas prices.

Commercial heat pump technology offers flexibility in tariffs, the potential for on-site generation, and new ways to store both power and heat - giving building operators more control over utility costs.

The challenge is navigating the complexity. That is where we come in.

The Client Journey

01

Discovery and Assessment

We assess your site, discuss your objectives, and outline the potential benefits and costs - leading all technical investigations on your behalf.

02

Design and Specification

We produce a first-pass design with clear expected outcomes: carbon savings, cost reductions, and operational improvements.

03

Decision Point

If you proceed, all pre-contract costs roll into project financing. If not, they are invoiced. Your investment in assessment is always protected.

04

Tender and Contractor Selection

We oversee the competitive tender process, evaluating proposals to guarantee the right fit for your building and budget.

05

Installation and Commissioning

We act as your Project Manager and Client's Agent throughout - managing the contractor and ensuring quality and timeliness.

06

Operation and Ongoing Partnership

The contractor takes full responsibility for operation and maintenance. We monitor performance and ensure accountability throughout.

Flexible Finance Structures

Both options are designed for maximum flexibility - no large upfront capital required.

Fixed Monthly Service

A predictable, all-inclusive monthly fee covering design, installation, servicing, and support. Can be structured on or off your balance sheet, with terms up to 15 years. Ideal for organisations seeking certainty and operational budgeting.

Pay-Per-Use Model

Similar to a solar Power Purchase Agreement - you pay only for the heat you use, with a minimum take. Terms from 5 to 25 years, with the option to refresh the system as technology evolves.

If neither option fits, we will work with you to create a bespoke solution.
