How to save electricity in the office

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 your office 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 method of how to reduce business electricity bills is by keeping your electric 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 – saving you money on your business electricity.

Switch the deal you are on

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 company pay more for the business 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 and take advantage of 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. Learning how to save electricity will help your company reduce electricity bills. Educate all 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 reduce business electricity bills in the long term to save more money. A great example of this tip in action is 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.

Rob says that thanks to the competitive rates secured by Utility Bidder in his studio, it would 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!”
