What is a Capacity Review?
A Capacity Review looks at peaks in your electricity use (Maximum Demand) in relation to how much you are allocated to use (Available Capacity) and the difference between them. Analysis of this can uncover savings.
By understanding what you use and how much you are allowed to use, a saving can be made on something you may never have been aware of.
If you think of your Available Capacity (or KVA) like an overdraft i.e. the bigger the overdraft limit you have the more you are charged for it, then by lowering that limit you lower the associated cost. If you use too much, then you will be penalised, so an appeal to increase your level may also save you money. That’s where we come in.
What we offer
We will review your whole portfolio and give you a breakdown of each site’s consumption patterns, supply capacity and opportunities all in an easy to understand report, which includes points to consider.
Due to changes in how Distribution and Transmission charges are calculated, a review of the Available Capacity may have an impact on these.
The last ten Capacity Reviews have uncovered over £17,255 in annual savings opportunities.
