Business utility money saving tips
Insulation and double glazing
When it comes to heating your workplace with your business electricity supply, you might be using more than you need to. That’s if you haven’t had windows double glazed, or your walls sufficiently insulated. Taking these measures in your workplace can prevent heat from escaping your building, meaning that you are using less electricity.
Energy-efficient lighting
Your lighting is likely to take up a sizable share of your electricity usage, especially if you are working into the night time. A good way of keeping your usage down to a minimum is with energy efficient lightbulbs, which use just a fraction of power that the standard varieties on the market do. You can also install timers for your lighting system, which can ensure that your lights are always off when you are not likely to need them.
Use intelligent HVAC systems
There are plenty of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems on today’s market which are intelligently designed in order to use less energy. You can automate the temperature in your workspace to ensure it never goes below, or above, a certain level.
Occupancy sensors
If rooms within your workspace are used intermittently, it can be hard to schedule your lighting to turn on and off at the same time. In these cases, it is advisable to employ occupancy sensors, which can detect when a room is vacant or being used. That means your lighting can be switched on and off accordingly, and you won’t have to use electricity when you don’t need to.
Switch the deal you are on
When it comes to reducing commercial energy costs, this is a great tip. Many organisations will simply on be on a tariff that does not give the best value for money. Being on a higher tariff will see your business pay more for the electricity you use each month which is not ideal. The best thing to do is look around at what other deals are on the market to take advantage of and move over to one that offers better value.
Educate staff
One reason that you could be paying so much in business energy costs is that you are using too much! Much of this will actually be wasted energy that is not being used for anything in particular. Common causes of this are things like computers not being properly shut down at home time. Take steps to educate staff on how important it is to not waste electricity and show them how to go about it in practical terms.
Use energy saving tech in your business
Although this may require a little investment initially, it could really help bring your electricity bill down overall to save money long term. A great example of this tip in action are motion sensor lights which only come on when there are people in the room. This type of tech can really help you use less electricity overall and slash your bill.

Paul Kay was fantastic in securing us a great deal and explaining everything in full. Thanks and would wholeheartedly recommended.
Excellent service from Kenny in the Manchester office, he worked hard to find the best price for me and explained everything along the way.
Will definitely use him again in the future and would recommend.
I spoke to Paul Kay this morning who in the space of 30 mins looks to have halved my salon electric bill, he was personable, knowledgeable and honest. The proof will be seeing if the bills actually reduce and if so I will leave another review but so far an excellent service
I dealt with Utility Bidder over the past couple of days, amazing service and prompt. Paul Kay gave excellent customer service! would highly reccomend.
Without a doubt utility bidder has saved my sanity. They have sorted months of going around in circles with a supplier in under a week.
I would highly recommend to everyone I know.
Had a lovely phone call from Connor this morning, he was very helpful, explained everything very clearing and all I had to do was agree to everything that was suggested and he done the rest! Very happy with the service
I have just worked with Alex from Utility Bidder to sort our electricity contract today. He has got us an excellent price for our charity and it has all been sorted in half an hour (possibly less!). He was extremely helpful. THANK YOU
Had a call from Alex York who within minutes had arranged a new electricity contract with a new supplier. He was extremely courteous, professional and friendly. Highly recommend.
Robert Johnson has just completed my renewal contract with my energy supplier. He was very helpful and very efficient. It’s the first time I have used Utility Bidder and I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them. Thank you for making it so easy.

Rob says that thanks to the competitive rates secured by Utility Bidder in his studio, it would actually be cheaper to live there than at home! “We pay about £30 a month for gas during the winter and around £25 a month for electricity – and that’s despite having a lot of energy guzzling equipment such as studio lights and fan heaters. Our energy bills at home are far more expensive!”
