.....strive to beat clients expectations

Reduce Carbon, Manage Energy, Remain Competitive

The CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme is Mandatory and has come into Force......

Are YOU ready?

New government legislation commenced 1st April 2010

.......strive to beat clients expectations

What is the CRC Energy Efficiency scheme?

Mandatory yearly CO2 emission monitoring

Reduction of UK Carbon Footprint 35% by 2020

CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme

Reduction of business Utility Bills

Half hourly metered combined utility usage over 6,000MWh?

Does it affect YOU?

YOU can’t afford to ignore it!

Do YOU have a carbon reduction team in place?


Are YOU a large organisation, college or public authority?


Using less than 6,000MWh but still more than 3,000MWh? YOUneed to disclose your usage.

If YOU register after the deadline 30th Sept - £5000 penalty

Don’t pay the penalty!

£0.05 per tonne of CO2 per working day of report delay

No Footprint report by 31st July each year - £5000 penalty


Further penalties of £500 per day until registered

Doubled to £0.10 after delay of 40 days


What YOU need to do now

Many organisations have not yet considered the financial, compliance, audit and carbon management implications of the new regulations. It's therefore important to understand how the CRC will work and impact your organisation.



Understand your Static Footprint

What is the first steps of your footprint

Provide a 100% Carbon Reduction Strategy utilising specialist software


Monitor your Carbon usage and footprint

Provide accurate monthly/quarterly/yearly carbon emission reports

Save money and keep compliant

Maintain good Public Relations


What do YOU do next?

English/Welsh applicants to the CRC apply through the Environmental Agency


Scottish applicants to the CRC apply through SEPA

Lets Stay compliant !

Create a Carbon Management Reduction Plan


Look at all the easy quick fix ways to reduce utilities and carbon

First plan to be submitted before end of Sept 2010

What can we do to reduce utilities and carbon in year 1?


Wishaw General: Case Study


The Project:

Using the IES VE software package create a one to one scale 3-Dimensional model of Wishaw General Hospital, Lanarkshire.

Complete a Sun cast Analysis of the created model which uses CIBSE Weather files, Location and Azimuth in order to create an accurate geometrical study

Input building fabric, HVAC Systems, corrected Floor U-Values into the model to create to generate an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) and report.

Input recommendations such as solar panels, biomass and ground source thermal heat pumps to calculate lower CO² emissions.


Star Cooler Air Source

What is Virtual Environment software?

IES <VE> offers the most comprehensive suite of whole-building energy, thermal and carbon emission analysis tools on the market. It enables the interrelated dynamics of a building and its surroundings to be assessed so designers can understand the effectiveness of a building and its energy systems right from the earliest stages of design – quickly and easily.

The software enables us to build a model with or without CAD data. We can create a 3D model from scratch or from imported 2D DXF data within the ModelIT application.

Here at Energy Solutions Consultants we have just began work on modelling a large NHS hospital to produce an accurate energy report and EPC.
