  • Energy Saving

    688,370 kWh

  • Financial Saving

    £68,837 per year

Problem

  • Customer invested in energy saving schemes, such as more efficient electronic ballasts over a number of years by using Salix and other sources of funding
  • Changes were not made to the street lighting inventory
  • Energy invoices continued to be based on the old and less efficient equipment
  • Forecast savings were not met

Solution

  • PDA supplied clear reports which allowed the customer to identify that the new equipment had been omitted from the inventory
  • PDA worked with the customer to help them update their inventory with the correct information
  • New inventory submitted and reason for the changes explained to the Distribution Business
  • These changes were then backdated, allowing the customer to reclaim one year of their overpayments
  • Savings are now being achieved and the previously incorrect energy bills have been credited by the energy supplier

Customer Says

PDA has courteous, responsive and knowledgeable staff. Their comprehensive data management and reporting systems together with their knowledge of the UMS sector, has helped us to manage a complex and significant area of our energy use more efficiently and cost effectively.
