GREEN ENERGY PLANS

Planning for a more sustainable future

 

There has never been a better time to turn your business green. With energy prices constantly fluctuating and market predictions suggesting energy costs are not likely to return to pre-pandemic levels for the next decade** it has become paramount for businesses to assess their current energy usage and seek to invest in more renewable sources.

Creating a green energy plan offers a host of benefits for your business – after all, energy efficiency measures mean reduced operational costs – for the environment and for the future.

We understand there is a lot to think about and it can feel daunting. Knowing where and how to reduce your energy consumption and improve your energy efficiency is the first step in the process.

Expert guidance

Commercial’s passion and proven track record when it comes to sustainability make us ideal partners as you navigate your journey to being more sustainable.

Leading by example

Commercial began its sustainability pathway in 2006. Establishing a green energy plan was one of the first, and most fundamental, steps in our carbon reduction journey. Having had a market-based Scope 2 emissions of 0 since 2006, we understand the importance of investing in green energy, from both an environmental and cost standpoint.

Collaboration

We take a collaborative approach to working with our clients, taking the time to understand their specific needs and challenges. This allows us to develop tailored solutions that are designed to meet the unique requirements of each client. By working with Commercial, clients can benefit from customised solutions that are optimised for their business and budget.

Partnerships

We have established relationships with cutting-edge technology providers in the renewable energy sector. Through partnerships with these providers, clients can gain access to the latest and most innovative technologies in green energy, which can help them stay ahead of the curve and gain a competitive advantage.

Challenges & Opportunities

While the benefits of becoming a more sustainable business and creating and implementing a green energy plan are clear, we understand that there are challenges to overcome and key factors to consider.

Here are five common issues and the solutions we offer.

Lack of knowledge and awareness:
Our team of experts will be on hand every step of the way. From understanding your current energy usage, highlighting the areas where you can save energy and talking you through the technical solutions available to help tackle wasted energy consumption – we’re here to help.
Budgeting for investment:
Energy efficiency measures and renewable technologies can be significant up-front investments. Our skilled team can help you navigate which solutions to prioritise to offer the best return on investment, cut costs, as well as explore the finance options available for energy efficiency solutions and renewable energy.
Industry and awareness:
We can help you to navigate the energy market’s ever-changing landscape. We can help you keep abreast of the latest market trends, technology, innovations in the solar and wind industries and the latest energy efficient solutions.
Integration with existing systems:
Integrating energy efficiency solutions and renewable systems into your business’ existing infrastructure can be challenging. Our team can identify the opportunities at the same time as highlighting the potential limitations to ensure the green energy plan you implement works for your business and your current infrastructure.
Compliance with regulations:
The regulatory environment surrounding green energy can be complex and confusing. You don’t need to struggle to navigate the various regulations and requirements. With our wealth of experience we can keep you abreast of what is required and any updates or changes.

Don’t just take
our word for it…

Commercial deliver. We are fortunate to work with some amazing partners. Here are some examples of great things we hear every day.

The new Walsall Housing Group office is a fantastic, fresh and modern workplace thanks to the wonderful work of the Commercial interiors team. They created a steering group to work alongside us to understand our demands and held regular meetings during the design process to keep us informed of the progress. Our desire was for a more collaborative space, with meeting booths and one-to-one seating, rather than traditional desks – and they delivered a fantastic final fit-out over the full four-floor building.
Each year, Commercial supplies accessory packs to graduate trainees at a leading accountancy firm, which are then picked, packed, and delivered to their home addresses by the Commercial Foundation. This not only guarantees that every new employee has the necessary equipment to be productive from their first day but also allows their IT team to focus on other responsibilities. Collaborating with the Commercial Foundation generates substantial social value returns on investment for the firm and contributes to improving the lives of the Foundation's volunteers.
Wollens have enjoyed a long-standing and fruitful partnership with Commercial because they are always introducing innovations and improvements to our IT environment. As the threat of cyber-attacks increases it was vital that we strengthened our capabilities for dealing with a ransomware attack with a cloud-based backup solution. Our solution means data cannot be altered or deleted, giving us a crucial way of recovering data to minimise any potential downtime and financial losses
Working with Commercial for our branded materials has proved to be effective and collaborative. The team is efficient and they listen to requests for improvements. Commercial has made branded goods simple.
As E-commerce in retail continues to grow, Commercial’s stock-management and fulfilment expertise has allowed a leading UK retailer to free huge amounts of warehouse space. Commercial took on the stocking of our employee uniform, transferring to a new supplier with the management of the supply being consolidated into their existing supply accounts. Not only did this free vital space in their distribution centre, the consolidated supply of all GNFR delivered significant delivery cost savings.
At JoJo Maman Bébé we are happy to work with the Commercial Foundation and support inspiring work they do to help disadvantaged young adults. Like us, the Foundation are a B Corp certified organisation that is proven to put purpose ahead of profits. We have enjoyed working with their volunteers to help with a mug-making activity. We are now working alongside them to create an introduction gift for our new employees, these include printed mugs, pens and notebooks.
