Saving energy is becoming a top priority for a growing number of businesses. However, calculating and presenting these savings can be a struggle for many professionals for various reasons such as shortage of time, expertise, or proper tools. This issue is addressed in this week’s article, highlighting two key findings from the yearly survey: confirmation of energy savings and rising energy costs.
So if you are interested, keep reading!
As we already pointed out in this article on the challenges for Energy Service Companies (ESCOs), the increase in energy costs in 2022 has exceeded 20% for one in four companies, whereas for others it has not been as much but still represented +10 or +15% of their annual costs.
Why is this information important? The fact that companies are facing higher costs is worrying. However, the positive aspect is that they can reduce these costs and achieve savings with the assistance of Energy Service Companies. Indeed, from an economic viewpoint, this cost increase presents increased business prospects for companies like yours.
When it comes to assisting clients in energy/cost savings, it is crucial to effectively showcase these savings and demonstrate the value of your services, which we know is not always an easy task.
The importance of Measurement and Verification for Energy Savings
The importance of verifying energy savings aligns well with the results of our annual survey, which also reveals a crucial fact – it is the primary challenge for both energy companies and their clients.
Did you know it was also a significant issue in 2021 and has been confirmed as the major challenge by both energy companies and their customers in 2022? In light of these findings, we are presenting a new webinar to provide the latest information from our Energy Management System Dexma Analyse!
This session focuses on achieving energy savings and examining the system, standards, and protocols involved. During the webinar, we will review the concept of Measurement and Verification, how to implement it, and how an energy management system can support you in the process.
