Would you buy a car without a rev counter?

By James Russell: Would you buy a car without a rev counter?

March 11, 2016

Maybe because we rely on the rev counter to show us while driving that the engine is performing at a normal economical speed. Essentially, your car’s rev counter is your energy monitor!

So why do so many hospitality and catering businesses run kitchens with no idea of exactly how much it actually costs to perform economically? Our recent survey showed that a whopping 77% did not know how much energy their kitchens consumed.  And without this knowledge, the true running costs of the kitchen cannot be calculated.

Monitoring your energy usage by departmentalising the high usage areas of your business could save you thousands of pounds a year.  The usual route of reducing the cost per kilowatt hour will make little to no difference to your overall costs if the energy consumption of your business rises unnoticed year on year.

And even if you have noticed that there’s been an elevation of energy consumption within your business, how can you pinpoint the department(s) responsible for the extra energy use without having a way to monitor the consumption of each department in the first place?

Our energy monitoring and reporting service will show you where and when the bulk of your energy consumption is being used within your business, along with the amount of wasted energy consumption there is and how it can be avoided.

Contact our friendly team now to find out how we can work with you to save energy and costs.
