Our renewable energy solutions
Eager to get the most from your energy provider? Well, youâre in the right place.
The National Energy Hub vows to provide your business with safer, cleaner, renewable energy that saves time, money, and the planet. Browse our energy solutions below and boost your businessâ green credentials today.

Carbon offsetting
If your business chooses to âoffsetâ its carbon footprint, you purchase U.N. certified âcreditsâ which work as a harmonising exchange tactic: if your business utilises power and releases carbon into the atmosphere, these âcreditsâ ensure that proportionate emissions elsewhere are removed or prevented in tandem. This process of de-carbonisation is intended to stabilise the planetâs composition with the aim to excel your journey to net zero.

Combined Heat and Power (CHP)
CHP is the simultaneous production of usable electricity and heat from the exact same source. Unlike other methods, the advantages of CHP are two-fold: power is generated for your business to operate and function while the by-product, heat, is an invaluable resource that can be used elsewhere in the company. This method is 90% more efficient and is much more economical and inexpensive.

EV Charging
The future of driving is electric, making EV Charging (points) increasingly popular amongst businesses. With options that span from 22kW all the way to 300kW, not only are EV Chargers proven to attract more customers, they are also indicative of your businessâ commitment to providing greener energy solutions that protect and help the planet.

Heating & Cooling Efficiency Technology
Add a smart device to your current heating or cooling systems that will reduce the time – and money – they spend running, improving overall efficiency. Rely on our trusted, sophisticated algorithm to extend the lifespan of your technology, thereby lowering your energy bills as well as your carbon footprint in the long run.

Heating Solutions
Do you want to heat your business with a more energy-efficient method? Opting for underfloor heating, whether it be an Air Source or a Ground Source Heat Pump, eliminates the need to rely on and burn fossil fuels. Instead, air or water (depending on the method) is used to generate heat. This is a much cleaner and smarter way to heat your business and reduce its carbon footprint.

LED Lighting
LED bulbs are a much more eco-friendly choice for your business when compared to others on the market. They are brighter, have greater durability, are much safer, and completely recyclable. Also, rather than waste energy turning on or warming up, LED lights switch on and off immediately. As a result, your business can save money whilst reducing major impact (namely Co2) on the environment.

Ozone Technology
Ozone Technology is one of the strongest oxidisers and (natural) disinfectants on the market. For businesses that rely heavily on dangerous chemical cleansers, ozone is an environmentally friendly solution that saves on cost, labour, water usage, time and energy. Available for use in different formats, this technology is also 100% organic.

Solar PV
Generate your own sustainable electric power with solar panels. By generating energy directly from the sun, not only can you reduce annual electricity costs and limit your dependence on grid-supplied power, you can also take steps towards minimising your carbon footprint. This renewable source can be ground-mounted, roof-mounted or integrated into solar carports.

Voltage Optimisation
Enhance the longevity of your businessâ electrical equipment and ward off power surges with Voltage Optimisation. VO helps your organisation use less energy and can save you between 8â15% of total annual electricity spend by managing, regulating, and optimising the power levels on your site. In essence, your company wonât overuse or waste its electricity.

Water Audit
Receive a full review of your current water usage, as well as any duplicate or hidden charges, allowing you to enhance your water management and performance. Rather than rely on âestimatedâ consumption and cost, an audit will identify precise usage, ensure you are on the correct banding, offer refunds or credits when applicable, reduce unnecessary waste, and maximise your water efficiency.
