Our energy and water consumption reduction support is specifically designed for UK organisations that:

How Boxfish Helps You Reduce Utility Consumption

Boxfish delivers an end‑to‑end, practical approach to reduce energy consumption across your business.

1. Analyse How Your Business Uses Energy

We assess how, when, and where electricity, gas, and water are consumed using historic data and site‑specific insights.

2. Identify Waste and Inefficiency

Our consultants identify inefficiencies in equipment, controls, operating practices, and tariffs that contribute to unnecessary energy use.

3. Deliver Targeted Efficiency Opportunities

We highlight both low‑ and no‑cost efficiency measures, alongside longer‑term invest‑to‑save opportunities where appropriate.

4. Reduce Energy Costs in Parallel

Where relevant, we combine consumption reduction with independent utility cost reduction and contract optimisation to maximise savings.

What Types of Improvements Are Identified?

Every client is different so depending on your site and sector, opportunities may include:

– Improved control of heating, cooling, and ventilation systems

– Optimisation of operating schedules and set‑points

– Identification of inefficient or poorly performing equipment

– Metering and data improvements to prevent hidden waste

– Behavioural and process improvements that reduce unnecessary usage

Business Energy & Utility Cost Reduction FAQs

How can My Business reduce Energy Consumption?

We help reduce energy consumption by understanding how gas and electricity is used, identifying waste, improving efficiency, and implementing targeted operational and technical improvements.

Is reducing energy consumption different from reducing energy costs?

Yes. Reducing consumption focuses on using less energy, while cost reduction may also involve tariff or contract changes. The most effective strategies address both.

How much can you reduce my business energy bills by?

On average, we’ve saved our clients around 8.7% on their energy bills in the last 12-months, but it varies greatly depending on the business, site, and sector specifics.

How quickly can businesses reduce energy consumption?

The timeframe varies by site and opportunity, but many organisations can achieve measurable reductions through low‑ or no‑cost efficiency improvements in days. Larger or capital‑based opportunities may take longer but typically deliver sustained long‑term savings.

Is this suitable for SMEs?

Yes. Many SMEs see significant benefits from consumption reduction due to limited internal expertise and tight operating margins.

Will this help with carbon reporting?

Yes. Lower energy and water consumption directly reduces carbon emissions and supports wider sustainability and compliance objectives.

Do you provide implementation support after identifying energy saving opportunities?

Yes. Boxfish can support organisations beyond analysis by helping prioritise actions, align opportunities with operational constraints, and coordinate follow‑on support where required, ensuring recommendations translate into real energy consumption reductions

do you have a conflict of interest?

No. Unlike most brokers, we charge a fixed fee for the support so we’re not paid more, when you consume more. This allows us to focus on reducing your tariff costs and your consumption – it’s a win-win!
