FROM CONCEPT TO COMPLETION

Powerstar Services is a new offering from Powerstar that provides a full range of solutions developed to meet the changing needs of customers in a rapidly evolving marketplace.

Powerstar understands that in recent years, one of the biggest challenges for high energy users has been implementing highly-reliable energy saving solutions to build more sustainable processes. This is driven by increasing pressures to support sustainability goals, in addition to the need to achieve competitive advantage by reducing energy and maintenance costs and adding value to manufacturing processes.

As pressure continues to mount from the Government to optimise energy use, and energy bills continue to rise, this is felt strongest by high energy users, pushing energy managers and engineers alike to explore more complete solutions that can provide long-term, tangible benefits.

More than a list of products and services, Powerstar Services are delivered through a simple, 4 step process that consists of analysis, inspection, implementation, and management of energy related functions. It offers a tailored and intelligent approach to energy management and is provided to businesses that want to understand how they can maximise efficiencies, provide energy resilience and cut costs on energy consumption and bills within their site or portfolio.

The energy market is fast-paced and constant changes can have a profound impact on your business, therefore it is vital that we make recommendations based on data gathered from your site to enable us to take advantage of the opportunities that arise to ensure your site is, and remains, running optimally. That’s why our service solution is an ongoing process.

By implementing Powerstar Services, it will provide improvements to the efficiency, flexibility, and reliability of your site’s energy by analysing, monitoring and managing your site and your priorities over time. Our services are built around a customer-centric mindset and delivered through a concept to completion approach which revolves around us keeping our customers informed at every step of the process and on a continuous basis.

This is achieved by appointing a personal point of contact as well as by sending our customer reports and recommendations as to how a site can become more efficient, resilient and reliable.

By understanding your challenges and building a solution that caters to your needs, Powerstar Services can provide the following additional benefits to your operations:

Reduced maintenance costs, whether it be pro-active, planned, reactive, or emergency maintenance.

Increased lifespan of on-site equipment

Contributions towards energy efficiency and sustainability targets

An in-depth understanding of further opportunities and efficiencies
