Energy Audit
Review of existing energy arrangements and costs looking for retrospective refunds and rebates
About us
Control Energy Costs Ltd have been acting as energy and utility analysts for 37 years. We currently work with around 800 UK companies with 70% of these being in the manufacturing sector and as such understand the sector and profile well.
We have been Patrons for 3 years and now work with 120+ members.
When we meet with a client we look at the whole picture and build our initial analysis around this. For example an energy broker only typically addresses the commodity element of a supply which makes up around 40% of total costs. As a firm of analysts we address all cost elements as the non commodity elements are just as important!
Ask yourself....
Would an in depth audit looking for opportunities to secure money back be a useful exercise?
How do you ensure you’re truly getting good value for money?
Do you really know how much your existing broker or advisor is earning from you as a client?
Does your existing broker or advisor do anything other than contract renewals?
Would you like to benchmark your current arrangements against a transparent solution?
There are 4 main aspects to our service:
1. Historic Analysis - In depth review of potential refunds / rebates / discrepancies. This is an in depth analysis far beyond just pricing. We complete a full audit initially for the previous 12 months but we can go back as far as 6 years. We search for opportunities to recover costs and ensure the money owed is returned to you.
2. Current Tariff Analysis - Immediate opportunity to review mid contract tariff structure and charges. Many of our clients would like our support immediately but think we are only interested at point of renewal. There are opportunities to achieve immediate cost savings even if a contract is in place which we didn’t help with.
3. On Going Bill Analysis – We review and monitor the on-going bills to identify further discrepancies. We notify you on an on-going basis of opportunities for further savings. This is particularly useful to ensure the errors identified during the initial audit don’t creep back in. Also to ensure any new issues are dealt with immediately.
4. Procurement & Contract Negotiation – We provide clear contract options via a rigorous tender process. We assess a range of contract options included fully fixed, partially fixed and flexible purchasing. We outline to all clients our commission/fee and declare these within the unit rates charged for complete transparency.
All of this is done at no initial cost to our clients. The in depth health check of the current situation is free of charge, with any opportunities for refunds and rebates being explained thoroughly before a share of savings as a fee.
