British companies embrace green technology

With rising energy costs and the threat of the energy gap round the corner, it seems businesses in the UK are embracing green technology to cut cost and carbon.

powerPerfector, the UK’s fastest growing green company, says demand for its energy saving technology is at an all-time high.

The company reached a significant milestone in 2011, having saved its clients £100 million in energy spend. And, firms across Great Britain are at the front of the queue to sign up for saving.

Thousands of powerPerfector units are installed across the country, saving organisations in the region £40million a year and offsetting over 250,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide.

Typically, due to the design of the distribution network, buildings are supplied with higher voltage than is actually needed. powerPerfector's Voltage Power Optimisation (VPO)^® technology, uniquely combines power conditioning with optimisation of voltage supply levels.

When fitted in a typical commercial building, VPO cuts an average 11 per cent off the electricity bill instantly. Organisations including some of Britain’s biggest councils, universities and retailers are embracing the technology.

One such adopter is Cambridgeshire based logistics company Savage Haulage. Lew Peppercorn, Cold Store Manager, said: "powerPerfector worked hard to find a solution that suited us financially. The savings are expected to exceed the payments, meaning our powerPerfector installation will actually be a revenue source. The service they offer is second to none."

Angus Robertson, CEO of powerPerfector, said: "The £100m that we have saved for UK businesses is the equivalent of putting £100m on the bottom line.

"The recession has led to capital projects falling down the business agenda but the economics of our technology’s installation, with 30% to 60% ROIs, should not be ignored – it just makes good business sense to reduce costs and secure your building’s supply."
