Our new lighting service is blazing a trail for firms battling to cut energy costs. Lighting can account for as much as 40% of your business energy bill and Utility Auditing can supply a comprehensive range of energy efficient fluorescent lighting units that will, on average cut costs by 60%. We also supply timers, daylight sensors and controls to make the most of natural daylight and reduce the need for artificial light.

UAL can provide customers with a unique range of extremely efficient, high frequency luminaires to cover all aspects of lighting from offices to warehousing. Through pioneering design, the light generated within the luminaire is placed exactly where it is needed thus cutting out waste. The range is controllable for both occupancy sensing and daylight linking, where further substantial savings can be made.
 
Many companies have discovered the cost savings they can achieve by specifying these lighting products, including Dixons, Sainsbury’s, the RAF and Polaroid. In many cases, payback on investment can be achieved within 2 years.

Boosting efficiency of electric motors

60% of the electricity used in industry powers electric motors, yet most motors are oversized for the work they do, with the majority working at 65% capacity or less.

Reducing the speed of an electric motor can dramatically reduce its power consumption and Utility Auditing can supply energy saving inverters to meet your exact requirements. Slowing down your motors can often improve process performance, while reducing wear and tear.

Through its partnership with LC Automation, Utility Auditing provides access to the largest supply of Mitsubishi Electric products in the UK. Initially, we will assess your motor loads and highlight possible savings. We can also offer fully installed trial units and control panels to demonstrate potential savings and payback time.

Compressed air

Of all utilities, compressed air represents one of the largest opportunities for immediate energy savings on any site. Utility Auditing offers various ways to combat the problem of high operating costs to make sure your compressed air system is operating as efficiently as possible:

* Leak reduction – Leaks can account for as much as 40% of the electricity used.

* Regular servicing – this can help to prevent unusually high pressure drops

* Pressure reduction –1 bar reduction is equivalent to 7% off the electrical costs.

* Variable speed compressor –will instantly save money as it only produces the amount of air required. Usually the savings add up to a payback period of less than 2 years.

Utility Auditing’s partners, North West Compressed Air Company, can design, supply and maintain compressed air installations of all shapes and sizes - from the simplest to the most complex - providing value for money over the life cycle of the equipment.
