Term-time profiles
Holiday troughs, exam-week peaks, evening lettings — we model the lot so the contract structure actually fits the calendar.
Multi-site portfolios
Academy trusts, FE college estates, university campuses — one portfolio, one renewal cycle, one written board report.
Public-money scrutiny
Compliant procurement processes, written audit trails, clean evidence — built to survive a DfE or VFM review.
Aligned with academic year
Renewals in summer, not in term. CapEx phased to fit your budget approval cycle, not ours.
Net-zero targets that hold up
Stacked interventions modelled in tonnes and pounds. Real targets, real interventions, real reductions.
SECR and SBTi alignment
For colleges and universities that report under SECR and increasingly under SBTi — we provide the evidence, not just the report.
Move from a single price-fix to a portfolio you actively manage.
Our trade desk currently manages over 150 GWh in flex contracts on behalf of UK businesses, and beat supplier projections by 20% in the last 12 months. You stay in control. We do the trading.
Further Education college — net-zero combo
A North-East FE college moved to a smarter energy purchasing strategy, deployed solar PV across two roof areas, upgraded import and export metering to half-hourly, and added water savings work in parallel. The result: a meaningful drop in both carbon footprint and energy spend, and a clean evidence trail for the trust's annual reporting.
Combined intervention
- Smarter purchasing — mix of fix and flex
- Solar PV across two roof areas
- Half-hourly import + export metering
- Water audit and supplier switch
