We offer an all-encompassing range of energy management services starting with design or design validation, up-front financial modelling and tariff setting, through to supply of equipment, energy management, operation and maintenance. When working with the communal and district heating industry to develop solutions for metering products and billing services, we adopt a flexible and innovative approach with the aim to achieve energy and carbon reduction. Metering, management and billing services

Whether you are metering output from solar PV panels for feed-in-tariff purposes or metering heat and electricity from a centralised energy centre, we have the entire portfolio of products and specialist services to support the entire Energy Services Company (ESCO) or communal energy project.

A metering and data collection strategy is the key to the success or failure of managing energy schemes, be it for commercial, mixed use or residential developments. Automatic meter reading systems enable timely production of consumer bills and, ultimately, assist cash flow. We collect the data, cleanse it and report on exceptions as well as issuing monthly or quarterly bills to all types of consumers, such as residential, retail or commercial.

Our services include the cash collection process for bill payment and credit control process to ensure financial optimisation of the scheme. These services can be undertaken on behalf of landlords, scheme operators, or developers, who may wish to receive a long term income from their initial capital investment.

Our online account management system gives our clients access to consumption and account data, with analytical tools for monitoring and targeting, which is so critical in reducing energy and carbon. Our customer support centre provides comprehensive support for all of our customers, covering billing enquires through to arranging engineer and cyclical service visits.

Contract energy management

ENER-G partners with both the public and private sectors to develop communal energy schemes which deliver both environmental and economic benefits. We design, finance and operate complete communal heating solutions for residential apartments, commercial and industrial buildings. Where funding is required, we are able to provide capital investment in the energy centre and the meter assets around the site.

As part of our complete utility solution we shoulder all the technical and operating risks of the plant to deliver benefits to the customer through reduced maintenance spend as well as lower energy costs.

The level of the ongoing operations and maintenance service (O&M) has a major effect on the lifetime of communal heating schemes. This is why we offer a number of O&M packages covering the plant room and related equipment. We have a highly qualified team of employed service engineers in place who are available 24/7 to deliver the highest standard of service.

Managed service agreement

With a significant number of unmetered households in the UK, high numbers of residents have to pay fixed charges for their energy. Quite often this is included within their rent, but research shows that these charges are disproportionately higher than their actual consumption. Introducing metering to such communal housing schemes means residents pay fair charges for what they actually use, thereby changing behaviour and encouraging responsible consumption of energy.

This Managed service agreement means that there is no initial capital outlay for the metering system, plus you get the benefit of a comprehensive data management and billing service package. Our charges for these activities are more than paid for by the savings accrued by the client (landlord) and the consumer. The typical contractual period of the service agreement is 10 years.

Our projects show typical savings of between 30-40% per annum, which would take most residents out of ‘fuel poverty’ as well as covering the operating costs of our services. We aim to deliver service excellence and the continual achievement of high levels of customer satisfaction.

Efficient air conditioning technology

ENER-G supplies a natural salt solution based system which not only meets comfort criteria but saves 30-50% energy. The technology achieves the required temperature and humidity in a single step by cooling and drying the air at the same time. This provides a more effective method to dehumidify, cool and heat the built environment. As a result of the energy efficiency improvement, significant reductions in cost and CO2 emissions can be achieved.

Solar thermal

Solar thermal water heating is one of the most cost-effective, affordable renewable energy technologies currently available, which reduces not only your carbon footprint but also your energy bills. It allows you to effectively collect and utilise the energy radiated by the sun to heat the water in both domestic and commercial applications. Solar energy is free, clean and safe and produces no waste or pollution.

There are different types of solar thermal collectors available. Vacuum tube panels are currently considered the premium product on the market being on average 30% more effective than traditional flat plate panel equivalents. The vacuum inside each tube ensures the most effective transfer of solar energy into heat and provides perfect insulation from outside influences, resulting in consistent high quality performance all-year-round. Flat plate panels remain the most popular solar collectors on the market. They provide a cost-effective solution and deliver excellent levels of efficiency and performance.

The demand for energy is ever growing whilst it is becoming increasingly expensive. Organisations are seeking sustainable and efficient power generation solutions to secure supply and keep energy costs low. The benefits of decentralised generation, such as cogeneration, are widely recognised – leading to wide uptake across the UK and Europe. Cogeneration, or combined heat and power (CHP), converts gas or other fuel primers into both electricity and heat in a single process at the point of use. Cogeneration is highly energy efficient and as well as supplying an organisation with power and heat, it can deliver a number of positive financial and environmental benefits.ENER-G designs, manufactures, operates, maintains and finances cogeneration systems from 4kW up to 10MW, fuelled by natural gas, biogas, propane, biodiesel or pure plant oil.

The technology is well-proven and recognised worldwide as a cleaner alternative to traditional centralised generation. Its long-term future in the global energy market is secured by its ability to provide operational, financial and environmental benefits from a single unit of fuel. CHP is ideal for applications with consistent demands for thermal energy and substantial electrical base loads, such as leisure centres, hospitals and industrial facilities.

Trigeneration

Introducing absorption chillers into a cogeneration system means that the production of electricity, heat and chilled water occurs on site. The hot water driven absorption chiller produces cooling from the low temperature hot water provided by the CHP unit. The operational hours from the CHP plant can be increased, particularly in summer periods where significant energy savings can be achieved by displacing conventional electric chillers. The benefits of trigeneration can be achieved on medium to large scale projects such as hospitals, museums and industrial applications.

15

Micro cogeneration

The small-scale units range from 4 to 25kWe and are suitable for a range of applications, including retail, commercial and residential. These units can be installed individually or as part of a modular system. ENER-G’s micro CHP range is designed to be located either internally or externally and benefits from long maintenance intervals.

Energy centres

Bespoke turnkey energy centre solutions can be designed for large industrial, commercial and public sector applications. These centres use CHP systems and other complementary technologies available from ENER-G. Such solution-based schemes usually include all necessary infrastructure enhancements to fully optimise the energy requirements of the site.

Long term care

In order to maintain the largest fleet of cogeneration systems in Europe, our customer care department co-ordinates our engineering teams that work 7 days a week throughout the year. ENER-G’s advanced remote monitoring systems allow continuous operation, monitoring and communication between the site and our service centre. On top of our range of standard service packages we take a flexible approach and are able to tailor service packages to suit the client and the site.

We are committed to making our products available to every organisation whether or not they have the capital to invest. Capital purchase

We can offer a complete turnkey solution at a fixed cost, including supply, installation and commissioning of the energy project. A separate operation and maintenance package is offered in parallel for the lifetime of the system. Customers opting for capital purchase benefit from 100% financial rewards instantly, together with the possibility of Enhanced Capital Allowances.

Discount energy purchase

As capital funds are not always available, ENER-G can offer its technologies on a Discount Energy Purchase scheme. We fund all the cost associated with the implementation of the project, including design and project management, supply, installation and commissioning. As the client, you contract to purchase the electricity generated by the machine over a number of years. A valued element to this option is the maintenance service provided by our nationwide service team, offering continual support throughout the contract term. Contracts tend to vary in length from 5 to 15 years, although they can be tailored to suit both customer and site specific requirements.

Enhanced Discount Energy Purchase schemes

For larger sustainable energy projects incorporating a variety of technologies such as boilers, chillers, infrastructure upgrades or other energy efficiency measures like high efficiency lighting or frequency inverter drives, we can offer enhanced Discount Energy Purchase finance. These schemes are designed to deliver significant savings in energy consumption, cost and carbon emissions.

Energy Services Performance Contracting (ESPC)

ESPC allows Public Sector bodies to outsource the provision of plant, infrastructure, energy and services associated with long term energy utilisation projects. This is made possible through Government Public/Private Partnerships (PPP) initiatives and the broader auspices of PFI or third party funding from a number of financial institutions keen to participate in Energy Services, Contract Energy Management and Energy Services Company (ESCo) type projects.

Projects are effectively self-funding, from the savings produced by the various energy efficient technologies and associated services provided through the contract. A proportion of the utility spend avoided is paid as a unitary payment to the ESPC provider.

Flexible finance and project funding

ENER-G also facilitates bespoke project specific funding that we are happy to discuss on an individual customer basis. In all cases our flexible approach to alternative financial solutions provides both quantifiable and tangible transfer of risk together with real and demonstrable value for money.

Partnership funding

Spreading the cost of energy investment to match the payback period reduces overall costs. Partnership funding is available for:

• Government loan or grant schemes• Carbon Trust loans and 100% Enhanced Capital Allowances

Finance and long term care

Carbon Trust Interest Free Loan Scheme

Many carbon reduction schemes can qualify for an interest free loan from the Carbon Trust. As such, ENER-G delivers services as a capital sale and the client pays for the equipment over a period of time without incurring interest charges. Because ENER-G is an accredited partner of the Carbon Trust, we can apply for the loan on the clients’ behalf.

Rental Agreement

If finding capital is difficult for your organisation or your company cannot apply for Carbon Trust loans, ENER-G operates its own funding package. Our clients enjoy the savings generated by the equipment from day one without having to pay for the capital. ENER-G will take an agreed fixed percentage of the savings generated as a fee over an agreed period. This form of financing, which may be ‘off balance sheet’, is very popular with our clients.

Long term care

For most ENER-G projects, including CHP equipment, energy centres, HVAC, lighting, heat pump and biogas utilisation systems, we provide operation and maintenance services.

ENER-G maintains a large fleet of cogeneration and biogas generation projects around Europe. We also look after the metering, aM&T and billing systems for numerous commercial and residential customers. In addition we offer a range of operation and maintenance packages from standard to tailor made packages to suit the client, and our customer care department co-ordinates our engineering teams 7 days a week throughout the year.

We offer a range of standard service packages. However, we take a flexible approach and are able to tailor service packages to suit the client and the site.

Service packages can also be offered independently of ENER-G installations, as our service technicians are fully trained in all aspects of engine maintenance, including complete engine overhauls.

Research & Development

Our continual dedication to research and development means customers can guarantee that they are embracing up-to-the-minute technology with tried and tested methods. Remote monitoring

An integral part of every ENER-G cogeneration unit is the patented on-board Gkontrol system. The system monitors and manages the unit and is programmed to optimise its operation to suit the demands of the site. Every day the system automatically communicates with our head office to upload recorded operating data and, in the event of a problem, takes the appropriate corrective action.

Before travelling to a site, engineers can communicate with the system to assess the problem in more detail and, wherever possible, correct and restore the unit remotely.
